I do call the pitch location and have without problem for a number of years. I don't do it on every pitch, but I do do it and have never had a problem with it. In fact, I think it helps with game management. Some may not agree, but I'm ok with that.
I don't work the knee and I don't turn or lean, but I know a lot of really good umpires that do. It's about getting pitches right and after that, to each their own.
