I was not impressed

[CecilOne]

New partner, second year, "lots of school ball" this year, has to borrow indicator and brush, as BU never goes near PP.
I'm PU, after 1st inning, comes to where I'm standing and asks if batted ball is dead if it hits HP, then needs explanation of fair/foul in batters box.
Then, calls a runner safe at 2nd (correctly), but DC asks BU for help from me about force vs. tag; comes to me with "what does he mean?".

Next game, newbie has plate with HSM, no cap, almost never removes mask,
rarely comes out, brushes plate with back to backstop, signals undetectable from BU position, etc.

UIC and I both offer to spend time helping with learning duing break, but newbie goes to watch some other game and never reappears.
