Listen, anything is possible but, this is NOT a standard umpiring technique. I guess you could say your working the ABC position ??
Then again the 1 man system is not standard either. Approx. 80%(guess) of the game happens right at home plate calling balls and strikes. Why not be a little closer to the action. I tend to think you get a better view there and therfore can give a better job.
Most associations have a preference, you should check with them.
