Someone recently suggested that this was not an approved mechanic.
Please advise.
Not sure if that's an approved mechanic or not, but that's what I give to my partner when there are two outs with a runner on base, to let him/her know we have a potential time play. Without runners, I don't bother giving that mechanic.
