I've never seen that one! I have to wonder if the scorekeeper said something to this official earlier that would merit this mechanic.

If I am envisioning what you are describing correctly, I've seen it several times this season. One official used that 'mechanic' for a hold (I heard him say that) and once for a very obvious hack. In these cases, the right fist up and the left hand making something like an 'O' banged against the right elbow. Those who couldn't hear him verbalize 'hold' on the first one are probably still wondering what the heck it was.
