looking like a fool

Hi Guys,

Thought i'd start a discussion about looking bad even when doing the right thing....
here is my story. 18U JO game. I'm the BU. Defensive team is playing shorthanded with 8 players. As a result there is no rightfielder. With nobody out, the batter hits a fly ball to rightfield. So....I turn and go out on the play. and I watch the ball land in rightfield with nobody anywhere around the ball. My partner laughed hard about the mistake. I couldn't even pretend that the ball was down the line...It landed about 10-15 feet from the line and about 10-15 feet from the nearest fielder.
Any other umps who want to share oopsie moments?
