Well YA, why else did we get into umpiring than a big sell out, and a called 3rd strike? Ok just kidding, but I do give it a little bit extra. First I call strike three, or more like " Haw, Hee" instead of "HU" of a normal strike. Now with that said I do a modified overhand out as my strike three call, not flashy, not trying to show up any batter....BUT letting the pitcher know she got the K in the book! I do agree with those that state there is no need to "show up a batter" but I argue there is a need to let the pitcher know she did good! There is the ability to ride the middle and not be obnoxious with it.
