See what needs to be seen.
The important things are: 1) you need to see the line and 2) you need to see the ball in relationship to that line....
Does that mean you must straddle the line ? NO! Yes, straddling is a great position to be in ... And it is the best position if you can see the ball and see the line (1&2). If you can't then you're just straddlin' ... and guessin' Get where you can see the ball as it comes down and you can see the line. Sometimes that means you are at an angle but it makes it a lot easier for you to sell your call because you saw the important things... rather than say well it's just me coach and I had to guess because your first baseman felt he needed to be on the line and make the call for me. If you're out in foul territory, it still may be a guess but it can be sold with a greater confidence. JMHO
