On Second Thought
Hayes,
I like your solution. You did remind of a time when I was working a one man JV game, R1 and R2, 0-1 count on batter, curveball for a strike, R2 stealing, I bust out to get some angle on steal at third, call runner safe. Walking back to the plate, I look at indicator and see 1-1, and click another strike to make 1-2. The third base coach asks for the count, and I signal 1-2 and he gives a semi-quizzical look but does not question it. Then coach starts his signs. Since there were 2 outs, he had R1 try to steal and get in a run down so R3 could score, based on my wrong balls/strikes count. End result, R1 caught before R3 scored and one unhappy coach.
