And you are right that the instant the 3rd out is made, the next inning has started. I had 6 seconds left once, and we played another inning.

I used to use a countdown timer, and I would quickly check the timer to ensure I didn't miss the sound it would make when time expires, and I would go by that as a black and white time, but I never had one THAT close!
Since my timer became the victim of an errant foul ball, I haven't replaced it (yet... it did completely remove ANY time remaining, etc., issues, plus I hate hour:minutes math...) so now I keep an old digital wrist watch in my bag. I note the HH:MM of the start, and don't track fractional minutes.
