I agree, this guy (Rattlehead) can only wear one hat at a time.

The statement above caught my attention. It is absurd for a player to think watching the batter's feet should be a priority. Well, it is a priority, the last in a long line of other things I have to do. However, in the SP game, seeing a batter out of the box isn't that difficult, even in USSSA and more-so for the "stand up" SP umpires.

Tracking the ball, many pitches are going to lead your eyes down. Even with the big boys, your window is so big, you can see the ball and the batter with little to no effort.
