Umpiring


Since my internship did not end up working out (thank you Lincoln Christian College internship department) I have been umpiring at night to make a little money. This is the first time I have really gotten involved in umpiring. Now, I've been playing this game for 15 years and my dad umpired for years but actually getting behing the plate and taking control of the game is a totally different experience. It is more difficult than I imagined but I enjoy it. Tonights game were played in the first signs of heat we have had this summer. At the end of the night I was extremely sweaty. Little by little I'm getting more confident and having fun with it. I love baseball.
