Am I just expected to show at 10AM the next day?
This may help a bit too:

Reserve rules for telephone availability:
The following guidelines apply regarding pilots obligations to be phone available when on reserve:
Day Off: No requirement to be phone available. If positive (two-way) contact is made by the crew desk a pilot may be given an assignment. A pilot is required to check their schedule between 1800 and 2359 as explained above and acknowledge any assignment.
Long Call: A pilot is expected to be phone available 24 hours a day while on long call until given an assignment. Once given an assignment a pilot is no longer required to be phone available until report time of the Trip/assignment, however as discussed above, you must check 15 hours prior to departure to make sure your trip was not picked up by a lineholder. If a lineholder picked up your trip you are back on long call and must now be phone available again.
Short Call/Field Standby: A pilot is expected to be phone available for the entire SC/FSB period. At the end of your SC/FSB you revert to long call and remain phone available 24 hours a day.
