What's the difference?
I have been schooled on 3-man according to the CCA. I have read the PBUC for 3-man. After reviewing the PBUC, the mechanics outlined seemed quite similar. Am I missing something?
Is there a difference in the 3-man mechanics outlined in the CCA and in the PBUC? Or are the 3-man mechanics generally the same? |
The mechanics are very similar, though one will find that MiLB/MLB do not strictly follow the blue book. There are so many options and changes that each crew ends up doing things a different way. AAA has the base umpires going out on every fly ball when they are not in the infield, same as four umpire.
For HS & college umpires I would suggest the CCA book. Several states have either adopted or are reviewing these mechanics. As always, check with your assignor for what is expected. |

Hey, Msavakinas...
So did you attend the first week of Central Ohio Baseball Umpire meetings last Monday? I remember that you said you were new to the area and planned on joining the association. |
If you can make it next Monday, our resident MLB umpire and association member Tim Timmons is scheduled to give his annual presentation before heading south to Florida. It's always a good session- plus, we get to skip usual rehash of the same old FED rules! ;)
