I suppose some of YOU don't even bother to remove your HSM to address an appeal. But us tougher gentleman refuse to shout through a mask. Do you suggest I now move it to my right hand?
why would you have your mask off? i consider myself quite a gentleman, and will continue to shout through my mask. if i get an HSM, ill appeal on a check swing right through the bars. im trying to understand why you have your mask off though. pitch comes in, batter half swings, catcher points and then asks...and in those 5 seconds, why have you decided to take your mask off?

in both states and at the levels i work, refusing to consider using the proper mechanics wouldnt get me too far. im guessing the same is true for most others here.

extend your index finger from the fist you have made around your indicator.
