I've had rookie umpires point to me on a swinging strike, too. I'm not about to agree or disagree with him. I simply jog in and tell them that once you call a strike, its a strike and by rule, the base umpire cannot give his opinion. It stinks that I have to hold a rules clinic on the field, but I'm not going to break the rules just to support my partner when he is clearly in the wrong for pointing at me in the first place.

Interesting... "county" rating system?.... I'd like to see that list and a list of names of who's responsible for it.

Him:OC (at 1st): "can you ask for help on that???"
PU: "Sure.....(points to me in the B position) what do you got?" Me: BU: "I've got you calling a swinging strike that I can't UNCALL".
