Through the Eyes of a Major League Umpire
August 29, 2008

I found this fascinating...the art and science of calling balls & strikes. Its a tough job but somebody's gotta do it!

	That was great, thanx for posting. And in the Ump's defense most of them are cranky cuz their seeing eye dogs are not allowed in most ball parks. 08/29/2008 12:18 PM

	Ruff, I have to disagree! If you know the game inside and out like a good umpire should, its not hard at all, its assholes like Ozzie Guillen and AJ Pierzynski that make it tough. Great post btw peace! 08/31/2008 1:03 PM
