I also do the "batters out" with less then 2 outs deal.

Any particular reason some would question that ?

I've always thought it was covering my own arse.

Some hard-a**es may also consider this as a form of coaching...the ones that insist that the players are responsible for knowing the game situation and should act accordingly.

I wouldn't think so. Just a standard declaration of the player's status.

If we ever work together, maybe it would be a better thing if neither of us had a bull horn. Umpire's debating public policy and the like in the middle of the diamond might not work too well for game pace. :D

I didn't want competing bull horns just my own....

Even though I live in NorCal I live in a area that is very, very conservative. So I have learned to turn my bullhorn off when out in public. :rolleyes:

Living in the Bay Area, I can sympathize with you, even if it is on the other end of the spectrum. :D
