I was taught (by a former ASA National UIC) pretty much the same, to give the count:
- after the third pitch, regardless of count
- ater each pitch when there are 2 strikes or 3 balls
- anytime I am asked
And by the way, the correct method is using the words balls and strikes (e.g., "2 balls, 1 strike", "2 strikes", "3 balls", etc.), along with the raised hands and fingers. I try to do the verbal before replacing my mask and the visual afterward. The BU is supposed to mirror the visual.
