I realize this thread is old, but I didn't want to start a new thread on an old topic. But I have an IF mechanic question/observation:

2 man system

As a BU, when I feel 'normal effort' by an infielder has been achieved I'll give the IF signal to my PU. (I do understand that the PU has fly ball responsibilities in this case) I'll then wait for a verbal call from the PU. My question is , is it a good mechanic to 'echo' his/her IF verbal? I ask this because how many times do we hear from either coach (OC/DC) ' we didn't hear you call IF'.

Thoughts?
