JHLeatherwood Report post Posted May 20, 2021 Force play? Looks like the catcher has his foot on the plate, so out! Otherwise, he's under the tag, and safe. I love this work, by the way - umpired for 13 years, and this brings back fond memories. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kiwican Report post Posted May 22, 2021 Baseball wasnt a thing in my Country growing up. Softball was bit tho (Baseball lite) Used to play for a club so in the summer most Saturdays were spent at the softball diamonds playing against other teams. This scene bought back the smell of dubin and leather mitts, warm thin fruit drinks, coach's yelling and the distinct sound of a ball smacking off a bat!. Thanks for those memories!

Lobo Report post Posted June 25, 2021 Two young baseball umpires arguing about how to do their job properly. One guy says "I just call them as I see them". Second guy says "I call them as they are". Old umpire interrupts and says, "Boys, they ain't nothing until I call them". Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
