I don't see this as giving the defense an advantage or even as tipping the off. If anything, I'm probably giving the offense an advantage (big stretch for that) by saying I saw that attempt. Again, it just removes all doubt from anyone's mind and lets the players know that I'm on top of the play. If I forget, I'm going to assume that the defense will think "He didn't see that so there's no point in making a play." The team that really gets the advantage on this is ours - the umps. And'm all for us having every possible advantage.
