Quote Phil De La Rosa..Metro Umpire (Damn Good One) This is really funny when told by the above individual. While doing a 10U game I was getting pounded by the balls that the catcher was missing. Took this for 2 innings, then beginning in 3rd I went into my slow pitch stance so I could see what the catcher was doing, thinking maybe I could offer some advice. I look back when pitcher ready to de- liver ball and this (10yr old) catcher has eyes SHUT, glove stuck out for pitcher to hit. I call time and explain to her that it is much easier to catch the ball when you can see it. Open your eyes and watch the ball come into the glove. The catcher (10yr old) lifts the mask looks directly up at me and says, "Big Boy, you chose this profession now you live with it." He told us he wanted to smack her on the back of the helment, but restrained, cause he was laughing so hard. glen
