Remember to read the rules over and over. BY BILL McGOWAN, Umpire in the American League. T ‘takes lots of practice to call balls and strikes correctly. I go South each Spring with the base | ball clubs and train for the season just 2s the players do. Any ball that is knee high and not above the shoulders, and passes over the plate, is a strike. Everything else is a ball. But some of the batters stand 6 feet 4 inches tall and others are only 5 feet 6 inches. So you—as an um-| pire—have a different strike area on | nearly every batter that comes up. The umpire must be fleet of foot, as well as of eye, for it is better to be “right on top of a play” rather than try to call it from across the diamond. If only one umpire works a game he will” have to stand behind the pitcher, so he can not only call balls and strikes, but also give base de cisions. It there are two umpires, one stands ‘behind the catcher (hg must wear mask, chest protector, shin guards, etc) and calls balls and strikes and decisions at the plate. The other is out on the diamond. This umpire stands back of first when no one is on base and to left of pitcher if 2 man is on fir He tries to be where he will have to make the next decision, The umpire back of the plate maj fold his arms back of him when pitch is being made.
