On a swinging strike 3 when the batter can't run, I point at the batter, signal the out while yelling "batter's out, batter's out"!

If not swinging, and I hate when this happens, I will bang batter out, and then yell "batter's out, batter's out" if he begins to run.

9.99% of the time, if the catcher cannot catch a strike, it's a ball to me.

IMO, as PU, you bang out the batter and the ball ends up at the backstop, you look like a clown and not the catcher. And I'm gonna do it anymore!
