In my opinion, players should know this rule.

On a swinging strike three, I will merely do the "out" mechanic, with no sound from my mouth. On an obvious swinging strike, you SHOW, not tell.

I would make an exception if this was a younger age group, and maybe say "Batter's Out".

In saying this, if the runner starts to run down to first in these situations (which they don't 80% of the time at least), I will say "batter's out".
