There is nothing worse than the "no call" we can make. Always make a call, if you don't have an out it is safe.
I don't believe "we" put the runner in jeopardy. If he doesn't know what the call is, he can return to the base. Besides, he's probably not looking over his
shoulder to see a safe signal, and it is his responsibility to touch the bag.
