U1?
Assuming that U3 was on the third base line, there were two umpires between second and third? That doesn't make sense to me.....

If that is the case, got to wonder about PGF/whoever did the assigning of officials unfamiliar with 3 man mechanics on a nationally televised championship game.

Yeah, but mere speculation on my part, since U1 is the usual position a 3-umpire rookie gets put it, and he was positioned where he was supposed to be if it was 2-umpire.

Isn't the usual rookie position U3?

What I've seen is rookies put at U1 with the explanation that much will be familiar wrt starting positions, making the most common BU call (at 1B) etc.
Although, in my first ever 3 umpire game I was at U3. I think, though, that was because my partners wanted to make me run! ![]()
