feel comfortable

You should always stay down in your stance when calling a ball. Standing up while calling a ball makes you look indecisive.

The voice on a ball should stay the same throughout the game. If you have a close pitch, and scream "BALL" it shows doubt. You're telling everyone that it was probably a strike.

It does not matter if you give voice and mechanic at the same time on a called strike. Just remember to be consistant with whatever style you choose. Use good timing. But above all, be comfortable in the style you use.
