Greetings, I also use the ump-attire ball bag and can recommend them. They are a little pricey for ball bags, but Ump-Attire has good customer service; and...
I use the standard Honigs ball bag (link below) and place my line-up/holder inside the pocket inside the bag. The other pocket holds my plate brush. I don't...

I don't think that there would be a proper place. One must be practical. For example, I would never keep it in my pocket. I use the Mickey Scriver holder...
... College ... I really love that. Not the attitude one gets around here! Talking to a high school umpire (one who will be umpiring college ball this spring,...
That's okay Rita. I work three D3 conferences here in Wisconsin. Last season I was working a season ending series between the first and second place teams....
That's a great story. It's the snide "Maybe in Little League" remark that gets me. Rita ... does not ... [mailto:WRLLUmpires@yahoogroups.com] On ... ball ... ...
The reason I choose that story is because I am amazed by the number of umpires who either think a balk is immediately dead or worse they can kill the play...

Baloney. It's a standard rule of baseball and softball at ALL levels. "Touched" could describe the instructor who told you that as well. We had a marathon...
The funny thing about doing high school ball around here is that the umpires I work with in LL are far better than what I see at the HS level. Wednesday, I got...
Yet, we get the stigma because we're Little League umpires...... From: Jeff Frese Sent: Saturday, March 01, 2008 8:03 PM To: WRLLUmpires@yahoogroups.com ...
Soooooooooo tell me how YOU really feel good buddy.Remember where I live and come and work some games with me.I did 4 H.S. games in 2 days and did a double...
As a follow up,Jonah has worked with good umpires from both are districts and has attended your clinic he as a young man already knows the difference between...
R1 - base hit. R1 rounds 2nd and ends up in a rundown. BR to 2nd base while rundown is going on. Short stop throws ball out of play during the rundown. R1...
Yet, it just proves to me that the saying about paid umpires being better umpires is simply not true - nor have I ever believed that as it applies to LL and...
In both J/R and JEA, the only situation close to this is a situation with R1, batter hits fly ball to outfield. R1 holds up and advances halfway thinking ball...
No, it would be time of throw. In the example I quoted, in order to award BR two bases TOT, you would have to award R1 three bases. Unfortunately, the trail...
No. That wouldn't apply in either situation. It wasn't a pitch that went Out of Play nor was it the first throw by an infielder. Both of our situations...
Your example of 2 bases and 3 bases is correct as long as BOTH runners have NOT acquired a base safely. This is exactly why you award the LEAD runner first....
A few years ago I was asked to do a Big League All-Star Tournament Section game as a fill in. My partner at the time was a high school umpire and was unable to...

Score both runners. The award is from last based legally touched, not acquired and since home can not be occupied you award two bases to both runners. Dave T ...

I certainly agree with Lee and Doug that one should award bases to the lead runner first because that is the way they taught me to do it. However, I am still a...
