Umpires, Like Players, Are Expected To Show

When I Was 14, I Played In A Summer League. One Night The Chief Umpire Asked Me If I Would Like To Try Umpiring. There Was A Little League Tournament Coming Up And He Needed More Umpires Than He Had.

I Reached The Point Where I Actually Enjoyed The Umpiring More Than Playing.

My Main Objective Is To Prepare Candidates For Professional Baseball; However, The Majority Of Our Graduates Will Go Home As Much Better Qualified Amateurs.

Professional Managers, Coaches, And Players Have A Right To Question An Umpire's Decision If They Do It In A Professional Manner. When They Become Personal, Profane, Or Violent, They Have Crossed The Line And Must Be Dealt With Accordingly.

I Had A Great First Year And Mr. Macdonald Was My Biggest Supporter. He Gave Me The Encouragement I Needed That First Year To Get My Career Started On A Positive Note.
