Well, tomorrow is the beginning of my 21st season as an umpire. As always, I am very excited and even a little bit nervous to get back on the field. I know that there will be many times during the season where I complain about coaches or players but it really is an honor to officiate baseball. There is nothing about it I don't like.
Tonight will be my normal pre-opening day routine of shinning my shoes, scrubbing my gear and ironing my uniform. I can't wait for tomorrow night.
Going forward, I will try to post something after each game that I do. Hopefully, I will have some good situations that will help the younger umpire. So, for all of you who are about ready to start your baseball season, have fun and PLAY BALL!!!!

For the past 19 years, I have spent my summers on the baseball diamond umpiring. I have umpired everything from little league to college. I have attended the Harry Wendelstedt umpire school twice. This blog will be a combination of stories and lessons I have learned along the way.
