When I said "miss a pitch", I meant in the context of this discussion where the umpire isn't ready.

There have been plenty of times where I have gotten into my stance and as I look up for the next pitch, the pitcher is already in her delivery motion. But I have never had a situation where the ball is already in the catcher's mitt before I even look to the pitcher. THAT'S what I meant by "miss a pitch."

We know what you meant. I know I was just giving you a hard time, because we all know the umpires in the paid seats will think you missed a pitch even when you saw it.

Okay, I guess I would have expected something more along the lines of "not been prepared" for a pitch as the term "miss" in this vocation is usually synonymous with likes of "kicked" or "blew" a pitch.

Yeah, maybe. Maybe it is because I didn't see you over the Camelback Ranch for the Warrior Dash last weekend
