Use it, lose it knowledge is easy to fall back on, but they are getting paid a little bit more than I am to know their rules. I understand, but I expect more.
Maybe too many chefs spoil the broth. How many of US have worked on a 6-man crew (for one game)?

Our duties and responsibilities, by and large, are very clearly laid out for us. MLB just seems to like to throw more umpires out there. I'm not so sure it does any good.

I'm waiting for them to put umpires at the warning track.

I haven't decided if I should call it from the dugout or the outfield. Apparently, both have really great views!

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.
