If the coach is between the box and 1B, he IS blocking my view, that's my point. I want that lane clear.

On a properly laid out 90' field, the box is supposed to be 15' from the baseline, but often they aren't due to smaller foul territory areas. If it really is 15', OK, he probably gets a step inside the box, but if it is less, as many HS fields are, I want him back out of the way.

As I said, I don't care if he steals signs, perfectly legal, and any good 13 year old catcher knows how to block the 1B coach and runner with his glove. Personally, I just don't want the coach between the box and the baseline, that is MY line of sight.
