Talking Au Contraire

Watch the professionals closely. Watch those working single A minors for mechanics. Their mechanics are crisp and accurate and still two man. (You're not going to get many four man games for a while)

Watch the MLB pro's for rules enforcement and the practice of "making the expected call."

Some purists will tell you that the amateurs call a game closer to the rule book. Maybe that's why they're amateurs.

No one on this board calls as good of an all around game as the worst MLB umpire. Some will tell you different, but trust me, it's only in their eyes.
