Arm's more forward of the body instead of to the side.

I haven't decided if I should call it from the dugout or the outfield. Apparently, both have really great views!

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.

Maybe that is the way that many do it, but that is not the way it is described on p.271 of the SUIP Manual. In both writing and clinics, it is taught the same, and as I have stated, mine is the same in all sactioning bodies.

Of course, that being said, the college level does allow a little more individuality with mechanics/signals, within reason.
