Uncaught Third Strike Mechanic

PBUC is now teaching the following mechanic for the uncaught third strike:

1. Indicate strike with right hand pointing to the right, even when normally utilzing the "hammer" for strike calls. (New pro umpire candidates at PBUC are all using the hammer as their strike signal.)

then

2. Give "safe sign" while saying: "No catch"

By indicating the strike with the point instead of the hammer, there will be no confusion as to whether an "out" sign was given.
