Patrick: Actually, I think most people find the easiest place to call balls and strikes is from the bleachers. 
Jim: While I definitely respect your opinion, I still stand by mine.
Buckeye: Thanks for the support. I would like to add that the FED umpire's manual states the same as well.

The FED umpire manual also has the plate umpire cover third on a bases-empty triple in 2-man.
I've lived in 6 different FED states and not one uses the FED manual for FED games. It is (rightfully) ridiculed just about everywhere by umpires with any real training.
