Umpire (Baseball and Softball)

For nearly 10 years I have been umpiring baseball (and two years Softball). I am starting this page to keep track of some notes that I make to myself and some links that I commonly use to keep current on rules, mechanics, equipment, and organizations.

  • 2010 Season: hard to believe I've been doing this for 10 years....
