What's good for the goose

What happens at the MLB level is not always good for the amatuer umpire. How many of us have been to a school/camp/clinic with a big league guy who tells us, "Do X." You say, "But Mr. Crawford/Hallion/Welke, I have seen you do Y." To which he inevitably says, "I'm teaching you the RIGHT way, which is not necessarily what I do."

I think explaining a pitch is not smart at any level below MLB, and since I don't work there, I'm just going to keep saying "ball" until somebody tells me differently.

Strikes and outs!
