Everything I know about being an umpire I learned from coaches!!!

I learned last night that you should not enforce 'obscure' rules like interference when a wild pitch is kicked into left field by the batter when she's 5 steps up the baseline.

Instead of 'deciding the game for them', you should just 'let them play'.

Sounds good to me. Since they don't need me there, I'll just give them my address so they can mail me my check!

After all, everyone knows that if an umpire is going to insist on "deciding the game for them", we would just flip a coin in the beginning, award the win to the team who called the toss correctly and go get a beer!
