The Rochester District Umpires' Association (RDUA) provides umpire services to baseball and softball programs in the Rochester, NY area. Our primary purpose is to service boys high school baseball. We also realize the importance of serving developmental leagues and programs that allow players to continue enjoying the game when their school playing days are over. The RDUA offers members the opportunity to receive NFHS Certification and ASA Softball Registration and Certification through a clinic program that is provided at no additional costs. Please use our contact info if you are interested in becoming an RDUA umpire.

Question: The batter-runner hits a slow roller to the shortstop and beats the throw to first, but misses the bag.  What is the call and mechanic?
Answer: The base umpire signals a safe call.  It now becomes an appeal play.  Just like missing any other base, the appeal must be made before the runner returns to first base.

Question: With a runner on first base, the first baseman holds the runner on with one foot in fair territory and one foot in foul territory, is this legal?
Answer: Yes, all defensive players must have at least one foot in fair territory, except the catcher.
