Channel-surfing today I came across the NCAA Baseball NCs and it reminded me of a question I once heard a member of the NUS ask.

When a strike is called, why does the umpire look to the right? Is the umpire checking to see if their right hand is still attached to the wrist? Has an umpire ever discovered their right hand missing after a strike call?
