ok Tom, i understand your point of watching the Umpire and his hand signals. i guess i would be more interested in the finer details of how the batter is supposed to be asking timeout from. and if the rules state that the batter is to hand gesture to the umpire, then the umpire would not be following the rulebook. but if there is a concrete passage i would like someone to point it out. in either ASA or LL.
