Gee, that's strange...the pros all do. I am constantly watching for these things and always see this signal given when there are two outs and a time play situation. If it's good enough for MLB umpires, why is it beneath you to use the signal? All it is is a reminder that there are two outs and a possible time play exists and to be alerted to that fact.

I'm not saying that you have to be obnoxious about the signal. I've seen that extreme with big, ostentatious signaling that some ham actors do when working the plate. I'm talking about a nice, discreet two fingers on the wrist.
