Called 3K, ASA SP

I call ASA SP, and only ASA SP. Lately, I've been increasingly focusing on the little things when I call ball. Last night, I had a couple of called 3Ks. I called a sharp "Strike!" like usual, came up, gave the strike signal, then dropped it kind of like an out sell, but with a more downward motion (as opposed to a "throwing" motion). Kind of like hammering a nail next to your left leg. I don't give any verbal call other than the strike.

I was wondering if you all would consider this "showing up" the batter.

I haven't decided if I should call it from the dugout or the outfield. Apparently, both have really great views!

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.
