这里有一篇谈如何成为MLB裁判的简单介绍： http://yarbertown2.wordpress.com/2007/04/06/ so-you-wanna-be-a-major-league-baseball-umpire/ 先决条件：1 耐心 2 有别的收入 目前职业裁判公司只承认2所裁判学校，都在佛罗里达，学费3000美金。 300个毕业生，只有每个学校毕业的前25个学生能入选参加评量课程， 再由教师评监後，向Rookie 及短期 Class A 提出推荐，能不能获得雇用 是另外回事。幸运的少数由此开始，月薪大概2000,爬到Class AAA的裁判位置， 平均要花12年，生活才会舒适一点。 The first two qualifications you’ll need are patience and an alternate source of income. There are only two umpire schools accredited by The Professional Baseball Umpire Corporation, both of which are located in Florida. Tuition will run you about $3,000 at either. Once enrolled, you’ll be instructed in subjects like the rules of baseball, proper signaling, and the philosophy of umpiring. Instructors are looking for more than umps that know the rules; they want umpires who exude confidence, display a strong on-field presence, have knowledge of the mechanics (where to go when the ball goes into play), and good use of voice. Out of the approximately 300 graduates, only the top 25 from each school are selected to attend an evaluation course. There, instructors monitor the students and make recommendations to Rookie and short-season Class A league presidents about candidates for hire. If you’re one of the chosen few, you’ ll spend several years working your way up to the highest minor league level, Class AAA, from which MLB scouts for umpires. As a Rookie or Class A short season umpire, you’ll earn about $2,000 per month, and it takes an average of eight to 12 years to work your way up to Triple-A, where the income reaches a more comfortable level. -- There are a lot things we don't want to know about the people we love. --- Chuck Palahniuk --
