it's just a gimmick of mine, i like to take my time in making a call. Mostly to prevent making an out call only to have a fielder drop the ball. I just wanna be "satisfied" that it's an out and then slowly call the out since it's so obvious. I'm also somewhat slow on my strike calls, I learned my timing from Tim McClelland. As Bill Klem once said: "it ain't nothing till I call it"
