It took two pitches to figure out his ball and strike signal. He is a little over the top with his antics, but I tell you what, there wasn't a moment when I didn't know what the count was. He shows the count to both sides, and the fans (looked like a ring girl, walking around with what round we were in) then i beleive he still held the count when he took his position in his crouch.
But then again, maybe all this was acceptable cause we were winning, cause the other team didn't seem to like him too much
My best days on the field are the ones that when the game's over, no one remembers me being there.
I call for the coach " I need a sub " but he only has 9 and the catcher is heading for john so I call Time and begin to wait. 10 minutes later , the catcher returns with and frantic look 
Well this being 2 private schools and me being patient ump that day , we managed to complete the game with no more delays. I just couldn't bring myself to throw the game, the look on the kids face and the parents trying to hide behind each other was halarious!!
