Flinching

[James V]

I flinched because on two previous pitches eye high the catcher did not catch the ball and both caught me at the top of the face mask. On the "3d strike" pitch I ducked and thus did not see the swing.

I know what I should have done, ie. call it a ball as I did not see and confirm that the batter "went around" but I did not.

Under these circumstances should I stick with my call or admit that I did not see the swing and call it a ball?
