With that said, I never throw the ball back to the pitcher. I always hand it to the catcher to throw back. Is there an official mechanic to this or is it personal preference?

 With me, it depends on what the catcher is doing.  Sometimes she's looking for it with her glove held out or is right there.  Sometimes she's walking back from chasing a foul ball that went out of play or going to retrieve her mask.  If she's doing that, or getting instruction from the dugout, I'll toss the pitcher the ball.  If I can, I'll hand it to the catcher. Not sure what is proper, but that's what I do.
