8.06 implies that the coach can visit other players as long as those other players don't procede to talk to the pitcher.
If the manager or coach goes to the catcher or infielder and that player then goes to the mound or the pitcher comes to him at his position before there is an intervening play (a pitch or other play) that will be the same as the manager or coach going to the mound.
Did he call time while the player was still holding the ball? That's a no-no.
