In that case...if you're concerned about mechanics...get the Red Book...I didn't spend a day studying 3, 4 or 6 man mechanics at umpire school. You need to MASTER the two man mechanics as they (PBUC) wants them done.

It can be a tedious book...but it will be your mechanics bible for the first 3 or 4 years of your MiLB career...should you get a job. You'll pick up 3 & 4 man mechanics as you progress in your career from: the PBUC manual, working spring training games with more experienced guys and from your AA and AAA crew chiefs.
