I've had the same problem from time to time. If your ump is agreeable to it, tell him to watch your hands. If you want him to move the ball to your left, tap your left thigh with your left hand. Signal the down with your right. Vice Versa if you want ump to move the ball to your right. Better yet, if the ump will help, have him move his foot to the right or left on your signal, then put the ball down at his foot.
