Pete, the believe the reason they use 6 umpires is to let the umpires get in more games. A few years ago they only used 4, then 6 for the championship game. I wouldnt never go less then 4 guys on a diamond. 2 is just not enough for a game like that, 3 man- you have to worry about the rotation, so 4 is good. I know we use 4 man crew from districts on up.
Re: how would i do?
I think i would be a little nervous the first time, but after that i'd be ok. Just ignore that you are on national television, and ignore the fact instead of 100 people in the stands, therre is 10,000.
