Gosh, the only reason you could possibly ask that is if you haven't had any length of time calling amateur ball . FYI, dozens of times back when I was calling several hundred games a year of 12U-18U baseball.

So having solid skills and knowledge of the rules actually allows you to make the correct call...you don't need great balls of fire to send a batter to 1st for HBP.
Tell that to the hundreds of umpires I have seen miss this call who knew the rules.Gosh, you trolls are aggressive around here.
