Tap on the wrist huh... ok well since its so common I will learn from ya in case a partner does it.
I posted this before, but somehow it got deleted, but tapping on the wrist with index and middle fingers is the mechanic for "timing play" all the way up to and including the MLB level. If you pay close attention, you will see the PU on major league games signal like this with 2 outs and a time play situation.
It is most certainly not just a Little League mechanic.

Edited to please the nit-picker.
