Agreed. It gives great insight into what umpire school and life in the minor leagues are like. Tuss Agee might enjoy it to prepare him for what it is like at Jim Evans if he plans on going in 2010.

I agree about Ria making it really far in baseball and that we shouldn't judge her. It seems like the situation in this video was not handled well. There might have been signals going on though, so...

Treatment of female umpire in Minor Leagues

I'm reading a book on professional umpiring (As They See'em- a really great read by the way), and it talks about how Ria Cortesio was treated in the minor leagues. Umpires said that she wasn't very...

That is the indication I got. Why people cannot do adult baseball without being stigmatized for it is an enigma to me. Do what you enjoy. No point in working kiddieball if you hate doing it. Same...

What October 31st opener? Is this a fall league you call?

It seems like disruptive fan behaviour at Blue Jays games is not penalized very heavily by criminal prosecution. This is the first time I have actually seen them bust somebody for throwing stuff. I'm...

As soon as you know whether it is a catch or no catch, make a signal. Whether a ball is caught or not affects the status of the baserunners.

I've heard the paid umpires are garbage. I would assume that if they didn't use paid umpires, the owner would just increase the entry fee, and the team waiting list would get a little bit smaller.

Good ejection. Slamming equipment followed by glaring looks bad on the umpire. I thought the announcers' comments were within reason.

Ironically, I consider Tim_C to be the only person on here who knows umpiring inside-out. There are a lot of people posing as experts who don't know umpiring very well.

A simple joke from me turned into a barrage of attacks. It doesn't look good on any of us to diss, or to talk about swatting someone. Can we please start talking about baseball?

You know, you both don't look very wise for fighting over nothing. Same goes for the countless other people who have been flaming recently. The p1ssing contests make everyone look very immature.

Looks like a good turning point in Mr. Steve's career. He became a very strong umpire and probably helped out more than any player could.
