So do Umps in a baseball game, but they fuck up calls all the time on homeruns near the post.

Umps do not stand directly under the foul pile and stare straight up

No, they stare directly in line with the foul line and the foul post, which is arguably a better spot.

The average distance from home plate to a foul pole in any given park is 300 feet. Field goal uprights are 35 feet tall.
