That's the plan. I learned ASA backwards and forwards before ever working another ruleset.

Agreed. 2-man is where it's at. That being said, I've worked some 3 man games where she's been in attendance. Her question postgame after I was U3: "Why are you so deep in B with a runner on?" (1B) Someone was watching the umpires and not the game...

Soon...

EDIT: I had her read and review rules 6 & 7 tonight (pitching and batting). One night of study and she knew all the pitching preliminaries. I was only able to trip her up on a scenario where the pitcher strides outside the 24 inch lane. WOOO!
