.

Read the thread on appealing to other umpires. As you stated, you are learning. Learn to hustle, get the angles, and make your own calls.

Twice in one game you are appealing calls that you should make on your own.
Don't make the PU bail you out.

Keep it up, we all learned from our mistakes, just don't make the same ones again.

Thanks
