Who knows? Maybe someone can shed some light on this? Maybe the PU was appealing a checked swing? However, over the past couple of years I've noticed a few "strange" mechanics occurring with MLB umpires. One would be the announcing of the location of a pitch called a ball; i. e. high, low, outside, inside, etc. This isn't done by all MLB umpires but by a few and runs contradictory to the training many of us at the levels lower than MLB receive. In fact, I know of guys who have been dinged on evaluations for doing exactly this same thing.
