I figured with the swinging strike hammer, it looks like i'm calling the batter out, so I figure by simply pointing to the ball, I'm indicating that it's a DTS and the batter isn't out... and i'm talking about some of those DTS where the catcher picks it up on a short hop which isn't immediately obvious... like Game 2 of the 2005 ALCS Doug Eddings' controversial signal...
