it is rarely called in the majors because the batters just don't "chicken wing" it 99.9% of the time. They usually keep the elbow in and turn the shoulder to make it look legit. That is never a keep at home call, least that I have ever seen. Great call by Hunter. Crede also deserved to be dumped I felt. Even if he did not look at Hunter because he did whip the bat and cuss. For timing of it all, Hunter could easily take it that it was meant for him. If he just cussed or just tossed the bat, he probably would not have been dumped is my quess.
