When I have a dropped third strike, I make no signal. If it is a swinging D3S, then everyone knows the batter swung and the ball was dropped. If it is a called 3rd, then I do give the verbal call....

FUblue, I believe it was my no-call of a strike on a check swing that cost them that game. I must had forgotten that I am to call a swing on a right-handed batter while standing behind the shortstop.

Everything you posted is correct. The FLEX can go in and out for the DP as often as she wants. When the FLEX runs for the DP, the DP has left the game and is allowed the one re-entry. The FLEX has...

Actually when this particular coach knows I'm on the plate, he does request time from me. And Mr. FUblue, I can attest to the fact that he did compliment Mr. Bandit. Like him, I don't know how...
