We had a discussion a few months ago about implied times out; ie., brushing plate, checking for count. My assumption is that we wait for all play to cease before taking either of these actions.

My question is "do you have an implied TO when you go to partner on a checked swing?"

Let's assume R1 comes way off 2B on the pitch. Batter tries to hold up and PU calls BALL. F2 asks PU to check with BU. While everyone is looking to PU for his call, R1 breaks for 3B and beats the throw from a surprised F2.

Legal?
