What would you call and why?

Not. I know what the books says, but I also know the practical side of the game.

If I'm BU, I probably will tell him to do it before he steps on the mound.

If I'm PU I'll tell F2 to go tell him.

This would be the same as F1 moving his glove to give the signals again. I'm not interpreting that as a movement to pitch.

Thanks
David
