Did that clear up things? |
I too, am not a baseball umpire. I was under the impression, given to me a long time ago by a very good umpire of both baseball and softball that we could all learn from each other. I guess I, or he, was mistaken in this. I will try to just go out and make the same mistakes everyone else does to learn on my own.
