Umpire Development

The integrity of baseball is embodied in the Umpire upon whom the trust is placed to insure the game is played by the rules guaranteeing fairness for those involved. During the course of performing these prescribed duties, the Umpire must at all times interpret and clarify rules as they are written. Words can never be written to cover all situations in our great game and therefore incidents may occur which call for the sound and fair judgement of the Umpire. This publication contains interpretations, clarifications, general practices, and rulings endorsed by Minor League Baseball and the Professional Baseball Umpire Corp. It is provided as a supplement to the Official Baseball Playing Rules which govern all games in Minor League Baseball.
