This post has been quite valuable. I am glad to know that other umpires use the "box" and that it is considered a valid alternative.

I've tried the slot many times but always seem to lose the outside corner. Maybe my depth perception is faulty, maybe I'm too close to the catcher, or maybe I'm simply doing something wrong. But I feel very confident in the "box."
