On a D3K (or a suspected one) I raise the right arm to the 45 degree angle, call "strike", and leave the arm in the air for a moment until something does or does not happen. I do not bring the arm down in front of me in the hammer style. If I throw the hammer down that means we have a catch and the batter is out. If retired runner starts to run then I'll verbalize "batter's out".
