Diff of Opinion - Obstruction Jurisdiction

[SC Ump]

Thanks Steve. This is good information. I'm surprised that the NCAA manual did not explain what the eye-contact meant. Without other instruction I would think eye-contact from my partner would mean that they were seeking assistance. If they did not look at me, I would probably presumed they were heavily involved in watching the play.

In discussions on this board, I perfectly realize that there is discrepancies in what some leagues and organizations ask of some umpires. Different organizations might have to adjust their mechanics to deal with specific concerns. I have just been trying to educate myself on the prevailing opinions between various organizations. Thanks for all who have input.
