Umpire manuals

[Senor Azul]

Mr. Kirk, could you update us on umpire books please. Specifically I can't find any Major League Baseball Umpire Manuals or Minor League books for sale anywhere--including your website. If you know anything about any of the others that would be helpful as well. Thanks.

100% agree I agree with you. I think Umps Care should do what the almost defunct, ABUA used to do, to raise more funds for the charity. 

Sell the MLB version of the rules book, not the Triumph Books version, and sell the MLB and MiLB umpire manuals along with the MiLB 2-man and 3-man mechanics manual.

Renee G, who is part of the Ump Attire Customer Service Team, confirmed via email, that according to the Buyer for Ump Attire, "They will NO longer be carrying the MiLB manual.  It is no longer available for purchase."

I also emailed MLBUmpireCamps.  They stated "at this point, we do not have the Umpire Manual for sale".

In case you are looking for other valuable tools, I was able to purchase the 16th edition (2022) of Jaksa / Roder from Rick Roder via his website (~$45) via Venmo (@Rick Roder)

I also found "The BRD" 2016 edition on Amazon.

45 bucks for a 16th edition current to 2022. I’m assuming you just bought it since you haven’t expounded and cited about any rules issues we have had on this board as our stalwart @Senor Azul has.
