The last time I had a batter who stayed at the plate after I called the fourth "Ball", the catcher told him..."Hey, pal, we're only giving four to a batter today...get your a$$ to first, slug."

I loved it. And I've stolen it. If I get another batter who can't count to four I'll use it, minus the "get your a$$ to first, slug."
