You won't find this in your regular rule book. It is in the comprehensive rule book issued to UICs.
And 12-C-4-g-(note), added a few years ago to conform with the Americans with Disabilities Act: "If the umpire does not have a left hand, he/she may hold the indicator in the right hand."

My indicator has the wheel for innings, so the way it's curved would make it very awkward for anyone to hold comfortably in their right hand. I guess I was just lucky when I first started, and I figured it out right away.

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!
I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.
