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."
