Personally, I don't verbalize a ball call very loudly, about loud enough for the batter and catcher to hear me. If I don't give the strike signal then everyone else should know that it is a ball. For strikes, what has worked for me is that I will make the verbal call as I am down, then come up and give the signal. For a called third strike I give my sell call and signal at the same time. Seems to work for me, and my evaluators have all said that I give good clear signals behind the plate.
