I Carl's book, he states that some crews skip the whole "wait for the PU to ask the BU" step when the both teams needs to know and it could affect the play.

He goes on to call it the advanced mechanic, when the BU doesn't wait for an appeal and makes the call in those instances.

Hummmm???

I originally someone was saying that BU should verbalize his decision on the call before being asked (awful!). I now know that he was saying PU (!) should verbalize BU's call before F2 asked PU to appeal to BU.

Yeah, that makes a LOT of sense. I missed Carnac's School of Umpiring.

Crap. I've been trolled. I really should delete this, but I can't.
