Fact of the Day: Two Umpire Schools
There are only two umpire schools accredited by The Professional Baseball Umpire Corporation, both of which are located in Florida. Out of the approximately 300 graduates, only the top 25 from each school are selected to attend an evaluation course. 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. It takes an average of 8-12 years to work your way up to Triple-A.
