I umped two games on the same day a year or two out of high school. Out in the field was easy. Behind the plate sucks arse. Not because it's hard but like others said adults lose their shite over LL calls. That one day was enough for me.

Yup. Unfortunately we get paid the same so everybody is always trying to get out of doing behind the plate

Had a buddy try to do some games in the league I'm at. He lasted a few days and just didn't like it.
I was fortunate that I got a week or two to just shadow somebody. I didn't get paid, but it definitely prepared me more to handle coaches reactions to calls they disagree with
