5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic, May 21, 2003
By 
Randy Given (Manchester, CT USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Baseball Rules in Plain English (Paperback)
I have the Official Baseball Rules (OBR) book and also use some online resources when trying to determine if my umpiring calls were correct (and what they should be in the future!). However, none of the other resources lay things out as clearly as this book does.

The reader is taken through a logical sequence of coverage that a typical umpire will encounter. It also is useful for coaches, players and spectators, but I find it most useful for umpiring and making calls on rules.

Each section lists the appropriate section of the OBR, so it is good to have OBR at your side as well. The reading is easy, well laid out and printed nicely.

This book was certainly worth the price.

This review is from: Baseball Rules in Plain English (Paperback)
If you only have one book on umpiring this is the one to own.
Just about every situation we will face is in here.
Jim also sells a companion DVD in his website which is excellent.

If you buy only one supplemental baseball rules book, this would be an excellent choice.

Clear, concise, and has many examples of things you would really see.

Jim Booth really knows his stuff, and it shows.
