Book The SABR Book of Umpires and Umpiring

Download or read book The SABR Book of Umpires and Umpiring written by Larry R. Gerlach and published by Sabr Digital Library. This book was released on 2017-03-18 with total page 494 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A collaboration of 34 SABR members. This book includes biographies of all the umpires in the National Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, other notable arbiters, essays about professional female umpires, umpiring in the Negro Leagues, explorations of the baseball rules, umpire equipment, and much more. During the work on this book, we interviewed 56 major league umpires, former umpires, supervisors and umpire administrators, and others whose jobs cause them to interact with umpires. We hope to shed light on the umpiring profession past and present, the work involved on the field, and the arduous challenges and sacrifices it takes to become an umpire at the top of the profession. We have tried to look at the occupation from many different angles. No book can cover all facets of the job, but we hope to give readers a fuller appreciation of baseball and those charged with the integrity of the game. Contributions by David W.

  • Author : Patrick M. Sullivan
  • Publisher :
  • Release : 2016-12-27
  • ISBN : 9781683190370
  • Pages : 94 pages

Download or read book The Kill the Umpire Handbook written by Patrick M. Sullivan and published by . This book was released on 2016-12-27 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You want to scream, Kill the umpire! Now, should you? Well, of course you shouldn't kill the umpire---that would be murder. But should you want to? Not nearly as often as you think! Baseball rules literacy (BRL) is poor even among fans, and worse among parents who are only at the ballpark because Johnny's too young to drive. That's because baseball rule books are boring. The Kill the Umpire Handbook: 101 Questions You'd Like to Ask the Umpire is anything but. Patrick Sullivan has umpired at every level of amateur baseball, from T-ball to college, over the past forty-something years. He's heard a lot of talk on, or from, the far side of the backstop. He learned his very first year---long time to remember; maybe even his very first game---never to answer even one question or to try to shut down inaccurate talk. While making his living in journalism and public relations, he got a different idea. How about an interesting, even fun, handbook---A Q&A based on actual conversations with fans away from the ballpark, questions he's heard through the fence but had to ignore, and fans he's heard talking to each other who sound as wise as owls but whose actual BRL isn't worth a hoot? In the years since his first draft, every single baseball call that generated controversy in media or online is something you would have already known the right and wrong of...if you had read this book. And yes, you will get the Infield Fly Rule!
