Professional umpiring debut


Recommended Posts

I made my professional umpiring debut on Thursday, June 2nd.  This was the season opener of the Colorado Springs Snow Sox hosting the Trinidad Triggers.  Both teams play in the Pecos League, an independent minor league. 

 

Friday, June 3rd, I was in Trinidad working the plate.

No different than calling hits and misses on a posse. :P

During stages you listen for the "clang", whereas here you listen for the "crack".

Congrats!

The Ump must watch for certain events and discern the timing of each.  A lot more than spotting.
