Thank you for the comments guys. I was told by another umpire that the pro schools teach putting the batter-side forearm in front of the waist, and putting the hand that is behind the catcher to the side of the knee, with the thumb tucking underneath the shin guard. Would this be a better alternative to putting the hand behind the back?
I also like hearing that I made the calls a bit too quick, because I am often told that I take too long to make my call. I will likely have some videos of live-game action up by May, which should make things a bit easier to observe.
