This is a correct statement. There is only one rule book for both leagues, however, the AL and NL each issued the red book and green book to their respective umpires. Now the seperate books have been replaced with the single volume known commonly as the "black" book. From your conversation w/ Mr. Ives this "black" book is the MLB Umpire Manual Procedures and Interpretations. That is a big difference from a rule book.
Windy, I am curious, why must you make an a$$ out of yourself? You, at times, offer insightful commentary that makes me think and become better, then you pull a Jekyl/Hyde move and begin rambling like that other moron from Chicage. I thought you were above that type of action. I would think that a man with the experience you claim to have and the faith you profess should be above some of the rambles, flames and name-calling crap that has come so profusely of late.
