Hmmm,

See I am much like Garth. I enjoy sites that allow small diamond umpires the choice of posting in a specific "small diamond" area (if they would only use that option).

I never hidden my ultimate dislike of small diamond baseball. Elitist or not matters not too me . . . I just "like" sites where we talk of full sized games played by shaving aged players.

eTeamZ seems to be the perfect place for small diamond umpires to get the correct information from people that treasure the opportunity to umpire (and coach) in that environment.

Regards,

I understand that, Tim. Still, there are those of us who work LL juniors through big league that like to discuss LL rules and mechanics here. I like knowing that I can have an exchange with Rich Fronheiser, Dave Hensley, and others here about LL mechanics and rules for the big diamond. As has been said many times before; there are LL umpires and there are umpires who umpire some LL.


Tim.

The original post, although likely asked by a poster with the small diamond in mind, had an answer that applied to all divisions of Little League right up to 18-year-olds.

Just because someone says, "Little League," doesn't necessarily mean it's a small diamond topic. It can also very much pertain to big diamond big-boy baseball. In some parts of the country, Little League's 16-18-year-old division is just as competitive as some amateur-independent leagues.
