I am sure the baseball umpires on this forum will tell you that a baseball coach risks getting tossed when he brings a rules book onto the field. I officiate basketball (rules interpreter) and umpire baseball and fast pitch softball, and I would not except an email to a coach from my assigner if I and my partners had not received it also. It just seems sketchy to me.
