Newbie Starting Baseball on Tues..tips???

Rule number 1: learn the rules. If calling OBR u can get them on line at MLB.com.
2: find an official willing to teach you, ask questions.
3: keep up with these boards. If someone comes up with a senerio, look it up in the book as to what the ruling would be.
4: look professional. Until you learn the rules and mechanics (which will take a few years at least) look and act professional. This will get you out of hot water a ot of times. Not always but if you at least act the part, most people will think you really know the part.
5: watch the game on TV and as much as possible watch the umpires.
6: and this is most important. HAVE FUN!! If you are not having fun it isn't worth it. Do it for the kids, the game and make the money last reason to be out there.

as far as rule 1-5 goes to summerize. learn, learn, learn.
