JStinski82:
It sounds as if you are a beginning official and I for one can vouch for the expense all new officials incur when first purchasing official's attire. With that said, it is of my opinion that your pants are O.K. I know that "Sansabelt" slacks are preferred and should eventually be required, but I wouldn't go to great expenses of purchasing $45 pants until you know for sure you're going to officiate for awhile. (I was given this advice by an experienced official.)
As for the free throw, it doesn't matter whether the ref or the ump makes the foul call (I'm assuming two official mechanics here.) The calling official reports the foul to the table and then "switches" with his/her partner. Administer the free throw(s) as per your official's manual. Good luck.
