Yesterday, major league baseball announced its 2003 umpire crews for the upcoming season. You can find them at http://www.mlb.com

There's an umpire crew that'd I'd really like to watch when they're in the area. Does anyone know where I can find a schedule of which crew is working what games when?

All you need to do is call the team's office and speak with them about your request, and they should be able to help you out. The only thing I would advise you to do, is to make sure that you clearly state that you are an official, and possibly be ready to back up your comments with any identification numbers that you use for your games. I hope this helps? Might I inquire which umpire you like?

Crew "F" is the one i'm specifically interested in. I've talked to Tim Timmons (#95) a couple of times and would like to watch him work when he's in Cincinatti, Cleveland, or Chicago and even find some of his other games on TV. The last time he was in the area, the schedules weren't out yet. And, when you say, "call the team's office and speak with them about your request" do you mean the MLB team in my area? Thanks

Yes. Make sure to talk to somebody in the baseball office that handles public relations. I have a couple of friends that are MLB umpires and that is what I have to do when I try to find if their crew is working in my area.

Buckeye12,

That crew is currently in Detroit right now, and is probably heading from Detroit to your area for their next assignment, or will be there sometime in the next week. The crew chief is one of my friends I was referring to. I do not have the crews schedule, but I am believing that they will be in your area soon. Let me know what happens with your search.
