Most importantly is how you sell it. I give every check swing a HUGE emphasis! I sell it like it is the most important call of the game. Seriously, in the last 3 years since I started doing that, I have not had a single arguement about a check swing, and almost no "grumbles".
so your saying that all you care about is the batters hands, and not if he "attempted" to swing at the pitch? interesting, its a good thing that you "sell" your calls.
