wraggArm,

Do you really believe umpires are not only aware of what batting position is up, but that they’d consciously treat them any differently than any other batting position? Here’s why I ask. I’ve been an SK for a pretty substantial number of years now, and while I’m generally aware of what BPOS our guys are in, unless there’s some reason to have known it earlier, I have to look at the book to see the BPOS of the other team’s batters. So, its hard for me to believe an umpire who typically isn’t very familiar with all the players on both teams, knows who’s up and what BPOS they occupy.
