Sometimes when the hitter starts walking back to the dugout on a called third (yes, those obvious ones)...my called 3rd is very tame in an effort to not show him up. Others may disagree...but I figure he knows he took a cock shot...why rub it in?

There is another element at play though. Fans. They like the show on the strike out.
I have never heard a player complain about the ump "showing me up" on a called strike three. I have heard many say "I sure deserved that!".
