Do you also believe that a called third strike doesn't deserve a punch out, even though that is what is known as a punch out? And Paul Nauert's called strike mechanic (strikes 1 and 2) looks smittyish, so I don't put a lot of stock in what he has to say about mechanics. He does look good in the scissors, OTOH.
