Inside

The last couple of weeks I have been asked to do some baseball games. I am almost exclusively a Softball umpire so it is definitely a weird feeling for me. My question deals with mechanics, what is the advantage of being on the inside? It seemed to me that I was at a disadvantage inside. You have a better chance of getting hit by a batted ball before passing an infielder and you also have a better chance of being "in the way". I would have much more preferred the softball mechanic even when you have leadoffs.
