If the count was 3 and 2, then Cooper's strike signal was as weak as his Time signal. It's like he called it too fast, then mid-signal changed his mind, and didn't do a full punch out. The old "strike-ball" call. I've never done one. Whatever I call it, it stays that way, even when I know immediately that I screwed it up.

Oh, but now after watching the video, it was 3 and 1. Never mind.
