Tim.
He claims a lot of things...

I think he should take the advice that from now on, if a coach ever leaves the dugout without specific permission from Blue, its an immediate ejection. Gotta be tough early on in your umpiring career, or you'll never make 'the show'......

It may sound logical, but the accepted and approved mechanic for the small diamond is to have BU in C anytime there's a runner at second or third.

Sorry, LakeErie... you have to be in C... otherwise, you can't see if R1 or R2 left the base early, a major consideration in LL ball.

The original post said 11/12 baseball. Every league i've ever seen allowed
leading off/stealing at age 11. In LL, how old must one be to steal, 18 ?

In Little League, or Babe Ruth/Cal Ripken, leading doesn't begin until you get to 90' bases at age 13.

I can see second and third just as easily from "B", and in fact I can see second better since it's in my vision while I look at third.
I know the established mechanic is "C" all the time (you know what I mean) but more and more the more experienced umpires I work with are going with the percentages and working in "B". I've tried it and I agree with them.
