How to get in trouble....

[kono]

Go to DD's Div. 3 softball doubleheader and pay more attention to the umps mechanics than the game itself.

First game must have been a joy - pitcher for DD's team threw a perfect game. 21 batters - 12 strike outs - no walks, no hits, no runs.

Now for the umps - only one foible that I noticed - R1 on 1st - no outs. High pop-up to the shortstop. PU begins to call IFR - then realizes and cuts herself off.

Only other comment that I had was with BU in C on a play at third, PU would go so far up the line that I wasn't sure who was going to make the call. BU consistently took the call, as I would have expected. I would think that going getting this close to the play would invite questions about who had the better angle. - Thoughts??
