Right, I didn't talk about in FP facing my hands first to the fielders, then sideways to the coaches. Also, I will usually say "1 and 1", just for the batter and catcher, especially after a delay. The pitcher gets a silent count anytime she looks at me.
Something I have noticed is that in HS, the coaches rarely ask the count, but in youth it's twice for every pitch and usually when I'm saying something else.

In SP, fewer counts are given, with less attention to who hears or sees besides the batter and catcher. There, I am more likely to say "ball two" or "strike two", especially when starting with 1 and 1 speed up counts.
