I called my HS season back in January because I still had not recovered from the abdominal surgery. I was not up to speed on running but I could cheat through that. The big problem was that I was unable to dress for the plate due to the surgery. After thinking long and hard about it, I decided that I was not going to burden my fellow officials with not being able to perform fully. I also couldn't be caught without a partner as our association forbids calling the games from behind the mound.
