I have seen the same. More HS umpires need to focus on what’s going on between the white lines as opposed to outside of them. Tuesday night I saw a young home plate umpire calling the tightest strike zone I have ever seen in a HS baseball game. Wouldn’t give the knees or the corners. Pretty frustrating when you teach kids to locate there and it’s not called a strike. Pretty much ruined the game for all involved but he damn sure made sure no player had a foot outside of the dugout. I was proud of my guy (a kid I instruct) for keeping his composure and working thru it.

Same story with D1 ball this year
