First "Televised" Game

[berns_97]

Just wanted to let you guys know i was selected at the beginning of the week to work the televised 4-man championship game at the beginning of the week for USSSA where the Atlanta Braves have their spring training games in Kissimmee, FL. Although it wasnt on TV, they still showed it on MLB.com. When i knew this i had to get the plate... Which i did and then i had third base making a few calls.  I was really greatful to be doing this at the age of 18 and with only 2 years experince. Couldnt of done it without the help of you guys. Whenever i have a question first place i go is here and 99% of the time its already posted here. Thanks

The trick to doing TV games is to - forget the cameras are there and call your game.

Personally, I like games without cameras, as it moves along much better without the commercials added in.

Hope you had fun!
