You have to get in the working area (behind the mound)...[/QUOTE]

The PBUC evaluators instructed the new umpires last year to consider the working area as a place to go for the second call and to get close to the first call they need to make.[/QUOTE]

This isn't pro ball. Average HS Umpire my opinion behind the mound is the place to be. Best place to head is to get behind the mound. From there I can get the angle for catch no catch tag at second and I'm in perfect postion for the second play be it at second or third and even first. Equal distance (approximately) to all bases. Works for me.
