Timing - Timing - Timing

Had a couple men's games last night with a partner who should know better. He made the dreaded "Out, Darn, Safe" call at one of the bases. This just looks bad. I had a very similar play in the 2nd game. Delaying my call until the play was done allowed me to point at the ball on the ground and make a "casual" Safe signal - no real need to verbally call anything there. We all need a reminder now & then, so here's a reminder - slow down.
