One of my mentors never used the sell out. He always just came up with a cool, calm, nonchalant routine out call, even if it was a banger throw-out of a runner trying to score the game-tying run to end a championship game. In fact, the more the situation called for a sell, the slower and more deliberate he would make the call.
