Theory
Don’t want 2 umpires covering the same play
1 Play / 1 Umpire Plate Umpire – Home Base Umpire – 1B and 2B
Runner from 1B to 3B – either Base/Plate Ump Pre-game conference to discuss this situation
Keep It Simple, Stupid!

Asking for Help
Leave your ego at home Umpire out of position can get help if he
asks Ask for help before you make the call
Create credibility for yourself Mistakes happen Don’t rush to make a call

Self Evaluation Did I arrive in time to prepare for the game? Was I in position for every call? Was I properly prepared for each play? Working the plate:
Was my strike zone consistent? How was my timing? Were my signals clear and sharp?
Did I assist and communicate with my partner? Did I keep my cool? Is there any other part of my game that needs
work?
