My partner, the plate umpire, had just completed a high school clinic (this is his 2nd year working high school ball). He had wanted to come out to a scrimmage to get some experience so we let him. It is very informal so he couldn't screw things up..too bad.

He took the play at home positioned 1BX as described. After the inning I tried to explain where he should have been....He did not believe me. He said that he was just taught the previous weekend to do it the way he did. So I posted the question to the group here.

He will be reading your responses.

I meant PU when I said U1.... another "old guy" moment...they are coming more often these days!

Thank you all
