Basically the batter let go of his bat before completely following through his swing. I'm not sure what happened with the first batter but the second one just let his bat go too early and it struck the umpire in the mask - he was called out for doing so.
I know the PU has other things to watch and hated to bother him, although he did say to appeal to him if I was unsure of a call.
Since this is only my first year and that was my 7th gatime, I'm just going to stick with middle school instead of high school for the rest of this year or until I get a better feel for my duties as an umpire. Next game is Wednesday.
