We arrived
at the American Baseball Coaches Association Convention at the Anaheim
Convention Center and tried to locate our booth among the 385 exhibitors with
the likes of giants, Diamond, Franklin, Rawlings, and Wilson. It was truly an honor and humbling to stand
under the same roof with these icons in the world of baseball and present Baseball
Rules in Black and White to coaches from all across America.
The next day
hundreds of coaches eagerly anticipating the opening of the 2017 ABCA
convention doors generated a buzz of electricity in the air, the same as lightning
before it strikes the ground. It was intense.
The doors opened and before they would close on the final day, nearly 5,000
coaches would have entered the building.

We
would finally know how Baseball Rules in Black and White would play to hundreds
of seasoned and knowledgeable baseball coaches. After 20 years of
umpiring, as you can imagine, I have put my share of frowns on coaches’ faces,
but smiles were placed on every face as they saw the A to Z table of contents,
large font size and simply defined and verifiable rules. Kristel, my wife
and I can attest that Baseball Rules in Black and White is the desired rule
book of choice for 99% of coaches who saw what this book does and how easy it
is to use.
“Genius”, “simple”,
“needed”, “awesome”, and “It’s about time” were just a few of the unsolicited words
of praise that hundreds of baseball coaches from all across America shared this
past week regarding Baseball Rules in Black and White. After twenty years of umpiring I did not believe
that it was possible for that many coaches to be so happy, but as they quickly
realized the user friendly format and the book’s ability to define a rule quickly,
the coaches were sold and bought Baseball Rules in Black and White.
