First GREAT question.

For me I do not vocalize the tag, but the hand does go up while I ask, or wait to see the ball. Because if I asking or looking it is going to be out, unless the ball is out, then they are safe because of that, and everyone will know.

I do agree if you have it lined up from home you know when the tag is made, and you should be able to tell what the timing is.

I do not like relying on my parts verbal call on a timing play. So I always line it up so I can visualize it too.
