Awesome video. As a former umpire, I can tell you that getting hit with a baseball is a horrible feeling. I've taken balls to most of the main spots on the human body and they STING like a MOFO. Keep up the good work on the videos.

People who've never played ball before have no idea how painful it is even when our armor blocks the hit. I had one of the best catcher's masks and when I got beamed it felt like getting smacked by Hercules....and thank God for the cup...even then, it feels like hell when hit.

When an Umpire leaves, where do the two Umpires position themselves? Because I do know home plate will always have an Umpire behind it. I'm guessing 1st and 3rd base, correct?
@zgaviation64814 жыл бұрын
1st and 3rd with no runners on, then different depending on runners/outs
@themltvods4 жыл бұрын
Its kinda complicated. With no one on then yes first and third. With runners on base you have one umpire behind the mound and the other umpire at their base, and it changes based on where the runners are. For example, with a runner on first, the first base umpire stays at first and the third base umpire moves in. Theres a lot more to it but it gives you a basic idea

The balloon protector is really nice on hot days, as that body armor gets hot as hell. But you're looking over the top of it, so your strike zone tends to be higher, and it gets in the way when you have to make other calls (a safe call with that thing in your left hand and your mask in your right looks ridiculous).
