LISTEN.
Listen to older umpires' suggestions Listen to your partner - your assignor should be pairing you up with someone he or she trusts your first few times out Listen to your evaluator after the game And LISTEN to the coaches and spectators. It IS possible you missed something. If so, remember what caused you to be out of position, or to lose attention (it happens), or to make a call you thought was right but not might have been. A lot of the posters here have a "I'm the ump, they're just rats" attitude but good coaches, and knowledgable fans, have quite possibly seen and played far more baseball than you have. Most importantly, LISTEN to the advice of the respected members here. You'll quickly be able to determine who those are. Have fun. Good luck.
