obviously you are incorrect. Of course you can see it. And yes I've called mens FP A at much higher speeds than cat... not to mention they leap and crow hop worse.

Sitting on a bucket stuffing a hot dog in your face while picking the lint out of your sunflower seeds you pulled out of your pocket is not the ideal position to see it, but I can see it in the slot.

Lucky you aint an umpire.


No I'm lucky no one like you ever umpired any of our men's fastpitch games because obviously you have no clue what goes on at one.

I'm not going to tease you because you are unable to see a pitch at or above above cat osterman speed... say like 67-68 is your cut off? Less?

But dont think everyone has a disability just because you do.

I definitely know whats going on at one.. and have the ISC coins to prove it...

If I'm not mistaken , the original poster of these threads going was talking about consistency!! Not the strikezone. Obviously every umpire has different zones, but as long as they stay there all game. The big problem that most coaches have with the umpires is the inconsistency that happens from time to time. You need to learn your zone , and stay there for the rest of your beautiful career. Another thing , don't be afraid to ask for help to get the call correct. Too many times you guys bring your over inflated egos on the field, like you can' make a bad call. Nothing will get you embarrassed more than making a bad call, then refusing the coaches plea for help. Actually , I have more respect for the umpires that will actually listen to you, then ask for help, whether or not it gets turned around or not. At least that guy is trying to get the call right, instead of thinking about his perfect calling ego. CHECK IT AT DUGOUT DOOR!!!

Wadeintothem, First you insulted just about every travelball girl with your waitress garbage, that was not even funny. I'm sure you were not expecting the backlash you did. Well, you go on to insult people with disabilities? Tha's not even funny bro. Disability is not a joke. No matter what type. You got yourself in a wreck, and you continue to let the insults fly. Every person who has responded to your initial post, you came back with junk, As if you are the best umpire in the world. Most of us can respect the blue's that perform their job well. We just can't respect the lames like you. You make all of the hardworking blue's look bad......Grow up!!!!


SURE LIKE TO RUN YOUR MOUTH ONLINE, BUT I TOOK THIS PIC WHEN YOU WERE BEHIND THE PLATE OF THE LAKEWOOD LADIES (BLACK) GAME, AND THAT HUGE COACH CAME WALKING YOUR WAY TO QUESTION A CALL. YOU SURE DIDN'T RUN YOUR MOUTH THEN, AS A MATTER OF FACT, I CAUGHT THIS PRICELESS MOMENT OF WHAT YOU DID!!!!!!

There is more to "going for help" than ego.

There are specific conditions when you can go for help. In fact, if you go for help, especially at a national or other evaluated tournament when you should not be going for help, you can say good bye... especially to any thoughts of working championship day.

When to go for help and when not to go for help is trained and taught to umpires.

The condition to go for help is not a coach or parent "really really wants you too", there must be specific criteria and outlined criteria met. The criteria exist mostly for reasons involving game management.

Most of the time an umpire does not go for help, it has little to do with ego and more to do with proper game management as is taught to us in clinic after clinic.
