A sad/funny one about another umpire I worked with...

I'm on the plate, parther in "A", right-handed batter.

Pitch comes in low and batter checks his swing.

I call "Ball".

Catcher asks me to check with partner on the checked swing.

I step out from behind the plate, point to my partner and ask, "Did he go?".

My partner gives me a deer in the headlights look, stands there for a few seconds and then....shrugs his shoulders!
