PG tournament in AZ when my son was playing. 14U. Teammate was smart (I'm sure he's an engineer now) and sweet but naive. Outside pitch called a strike. He held his bat out over the plate to absorb the fact and sort out how to hit it next time. Completely an internal exercise. Didn't say a word. PU lit him up pretty good.

90% chance I know the PU (if you had a name or identifying characteristic). 16% chance it was a Vulture. 

0% chance it was me.

I just point my finger at my own chest. "Steve, did he go? No, he did not!"

Which hand do you use for that mechanic?

Since my comment posted three times, I figured I'd have some fun with the magic of editing.
