An IP is a delayed dead ball, so he might have been doing some variation of the right arm extended out. Or continuing the hokey pokey?

It wasn't the DDB signal. I'm familiar with that from FP and I'd be on here praising the umpire if he actually used the DDB signal as he called IP.
The best I can describe it is that it looked like he was turning some sort of knob.
Although I did realize something today, on a taken pitch, if I don't see the hammer or hear "strike" it's probably a ball, regardless of what gesture is used.
