Prefer Not to Verbalize

Quote:
But there a preferred Fed mechanic for verbalizing the count?
I give everyone the preferred FED finger mechanics.
I am not there to discuss the count.
I might let the catcher know aloud between pitches.
I might let the batter know aloud before he returns to bat.
I might say it every now and then to clarify things for the pitcher.
I always say it correctly, if it is important enough to mention aloud, "Two balls, two strikes."
I don't want to appear rude and impolite to those who may not be paying attention to the game.
I was raised that way.
