I guess now I know what my partner was talking about, the difference between a SB/BB umpire

I still have trouble remembering (or understanding how) to call things like the LBR. The FLEX/DP I'm understanding now, I'm feeling pretty good with the differences in pitching and my mechanics finally look like I know what I'm doing. The differences between the small/big field messed me up a couple of times early on in my SB career. Since I still work mainly baseball I still have to think about things but they are becoming more automatic. So overall the decission to start doing HS SB was a good one, I'm having fun.

I've been ASA certified now so my next step is to work some men's fastpitch travel games.
