The "Time[ing] Play" signal is a defined signal in the NCAA Umpire manual (pg. 39), and is fairly commonly used in other sanctions, again, at least around here. It is a tap of the left wrist where a watch is normally worn with 1-2 fingers of the right hand. It is an alert/reminder that the possibility of a timing play exists, usually runner(s) on, in scoring position, with 2 outs.

With all due respect to the NCAA gurus, a timing play is a possibility on many different scenarios regardless of the number of outs.
