3 EJS to appox. 40 games? Really Dan that's a pretty high ejection percentage rate. That's how many ejections I've had in the past 2 season and I work 130+ baseball games between Feb & Dec in leagues from youth to adult. You could also add in maybe 50 fast pitch softball games (no additional ejections). I will admit that my ejection rate increases when doing men's slowpitch softball....the beer leagues can be rough

Maybe if you were a better umpire you wouldn't upset so many coaches...think about it....attend some clinics and learn. I remember way back, about a life time ago for you, when I went to my first umpire school.....I didn't realize how much I $ucked as an umpire until I was taught by some guys that knew what they were doing. And after all these years I still attend at least one umpire clinic away and all of the local ones I can find and umpiring is only my hobby.
