I think, no, I know I blew a call tonight

I have you both beat. DK3, as the catcher moves to my right and I open the gate and rise, I point the strike, but failed to verbally say strike. A lot of movement by the batter, still not totally sure what he did. He did however follow the pitch into and through the catchers glove, taking off immediatly toward 1B. At about the 45, BR looks back and sees the catcher field and throw the ball for the out. Coach is just a little upset to say the least. I don't know why I failed to use a voice mechanic with the call, I didn't, never done this one before in 7 years. Now I'm kicking myself in the head, wondering about continuing. Hell, I've missed a punch out as most of us have one time or another, but I've never done this one! No doubt on the pitch, beautiful, literally on the black knee high, hit the pocket of the catchers glove. I initially was going to do a punch out, instead I just rose and pointed. This one is truly eating at me. DAMN
