Well first game didn't really go all that bad. I guess this league is pretty laid back as my fellow umpire showed up in a big blue T-shirt, and shorts. I never saw a lineup card taken, and subs were brought in like a basketball game!

I did get caught a couple times on where to stand with runners on the bases and what I am supposed to be watching on certain plays. For instance, I had a tag up play where I had to go into the outfield to see if it was a catch/trap, and the other team said the runner left early, missed base, etc etc. Who is watching that in a 2 person crew? There wasn't a working scoreboard there either, so keeping track of outs, balls and strikes was a hassle as well. All in all it didn't go bad. I am going to try and secure a rule book today, as well as a ball/strike/out counter as I have to work behind the plate on Thurs! OUCH!
