As for your question, I prefer B.

thanks

I was watching a D1 game the other day and I saw the crew switch during an at bat based on the situation. Men on 1st and 2nd, they start in the normal A-C, but when the batter shows bunt on the first pitch they switch to B-D. Is this CCA mechanics?

Don't know about CCA but that's pretty smart umpiring.

Only my opinion, but I see too many umpires that are bound to a manual, (sometimes because they have no options by their group or association) and they don't use common sense.

We give our guys in HS several options and they can choose their preference.

One is three man, B or C for U3. The other is the options with two out to have B and C or A and B (that's with R1 and R2.)

Hey if i stick around long enough I'm sure all of this is going to change again, probably sooner than later.

Thanks
David
