153 this year............and again............"0" tosses..............(and Fall-ball is soooooo layed back.......I can't imagine any REAL controversies coming in that)......
Last year I had a little over 220 (counting Fall-ball)........and again "0" tosses..........
Last year, I got really nervous because I had almost "zero" controversies..........and ended the season without many ripples..............but it still had me looking over my shoulder after about 50 games (at that time, I had EXACTLY ZERO questioned calls)...........but was glad to make the season almost intact........
I booted a few and still made it out OK............grin
This year was even smoother............I booted a pitcher illegally pitching.............along with the normal strikes/balls missed............I am sure I probably booted a few others.........but those are the only ones I recall off the top of my head.......
I am sure the SB Gods are saving something special for me in the future..............grin
I just hope I am ready for it when it happens...........
It may be this coming year..........I will be calling mulitple districts this next year because my office has moved.........and it will be easier for me to umpire outside of my regular association........
So I will be seeing a lot of new coaches and parents in an area where I am NOT a fixture............
We will see where that goes............
