Can anyone tell me what he is saying when calling a strike on a batter?
I think hes a great umpire and just wanted to know what his style is for calling a strike on a batter.
Thank you in advance!!!

He's saying "strike". With the mask in place, and the "forceful utterance" used, the sound coming from many (most?) umpires only bears a small resembance to the sound of "strike" when spoken. Some drop the "k" sound. Some change the "str" to "h". Some do both.
