If by giving up you mean ignoring, yes, in college games. The new rule will not change the way I (or other umps I know) have been calling strikes. The NCAA practically admits that the new wording was to bring to book in line with reality.
Come on, where's your spirit.

I cannot wait until a coach comes out and wants an umpire to show them where the batter's sternum is located "in his/her judgment".

Better call a lawyer before accommodating the request
