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'll do this if the batter runs.

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.

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.

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