Love a close call at the plate (my DD is a catcher), but often wonder if I'm in the best position for the call. Our HS association recommends calling from the infield in front of the plate when possible. Easy to get there on a throw in from the outfield, but on passed pitches, or a runner leaving third on a bunt, a lot depends on the play.
Again, I realize this has probably been covered before, but I'm relatively new to the forum. Looking for advice and some insight going into our mechanics clinic this weekend.
I was upset about this safe call at the time, but looking back, the catcher rolled to her left on a passed pitch and PU moved to his right and was in good position (not in the picture, but player's eyes are focused on him).
