In your league -- does the count for strikes and balls start at zero for each?

Or is their already a ball / strike given?

Fair enough. Approach a single mom at the game and take her out for a dinner.

Well you should just go out and ask one out. If they do not have a ring on their finger, go get 'em tiger.

I love these answers from regular people. I had a tough game the other day for 10u game.

coach didn't like one of my calls and had hard time explain the rule a tad so they don't want me to come back good enough for me.

Btw the other game a grandmother was kick out

my uic said he let it cool down and put me in some other places.

YES THEY DO! When you can't even spell 'Umpire", you might have issues behind the plate. I play on a mens softball league and our 1 guy does a great job behind the plate (big deal in slow pitch) and gets out to the bases in a hurry.

As for them being human, no they are not.
