What ever you do, get out from behind the plate on all plays. I have a hard time understanding why you are by yourself to begin with. I know it happens sometime when a partner doesn't show. I guess there is a shortage of umps in your town. If I have to call a game alone, I get out from behind the plate and get the best angle on the plays as possible. A lot of the time it's just going out around the pitcher's plate. I don't know of any published articles on 1-man mechanics. I'm sure someone out there has some other ideas though.
Good luck and be safe!!
