If you'll read back through the post's in this thread you'll see that most of the board is in agreement on an acceptable mechanic for an uncaught third strike.

If the ball is caught cleanly for the third strike you should just verbally announce "out" loud enough for the batter and catcher to hear. What you shouldn't do is shout "batters out." Everybody in the stands knows the batter just struck out and a big verbal announcement is showing up the batter.

If the third strike is uncaught with first base unoccupied with less than two outs, then you should verbally announce "no catch, no catch."
