Doug Eddings

I don't know if any of you happened to see the Braves / D-Backs game on TBS today, but HP Umpire Doug Eddings used a couple of different stances during the game. The first batter of the game, a lefty, Eddings was down on one knee, then the next batter, a righty, Eddings was in the GD. He didn;t always go down on one knee for leftys and sometimes did it for rightys, and sometimes would do it for only one pitch in an at-bat. So I was just wondering if any of you change stances based on batters handedness or if you think there are some that work better in certain situations. I think the GD gives you a pretty good view no matter what the situation. I just found it a bit odd.
