I think it's because of the mnenomic of balL-Left and Right-stRike, and that the words sound similar!

What's odd, however, is the fact that most (not all, but most) indicators show strikes on top, then balls in the middle, and outs on the bottom. You would think they would shows balls, then strikes, in the same order you verbalize counts.
