Over the last couple of weeks I have done at least 10 games and there has been no problems.

I am probably jinxing myself here but there has been no chirping, no "come on Blue", no coaches coming out to argue, no nothing. Just seems kinda weird.

Even had one day where I was BU and I didn't feel 100% comfortable with a couple of close calls but even then had nothing from anyone.

For the most part I have been very comfortable and confident.

I will say that all the games I have done have been older kids mostly 15U and a couple of 13U.

Now after saying all this I am probably going to have the worst week ever this coming week.

It has been nice to call games and enjoy baseball.

Thanks, I needed that. But I prefer it when they say "YOU'RE HORRIBLE"

That calls for an Immediate EJ from me. No Warning no Walking away no nothing! :smachhead::wave:

I had a loser's bracket game last night in our Sectional 11-12 LLSB tournament. Needless to say the losing team's fans didn't agree with anything. Their batter's were setting up as far back in the box as possible so the drop in the pitch made it look to them that I was calling strikes below the knees.

Also heard a fan after a pitch bounced between a batter's legs say "That's another one ya'll missed blue".

We were wearing red and I heard a fan yell something like "Come on blue I mean red, get it right". I just laugh inside. And heard the classic, "You just don't like (insert town name here)."

I did have a great play at the plate. Girl coming home and jumps into her slide. Catcher has the ball and tags the girl in the air. Never expected that at this age.
