LDUB:
Yes, I read it, but you are missing my point entirely. Call it game management, but even if I could see an eye chart being held up by the PU, if the 1B coach is between the box and the base line, I'm TELLING him, "Coach, you blocking my view, back up a step."
They never complain when you tell them you are being blocked. But if you were to say, "Coach, you can't be out there stealing signs" or "Coach, you have to stay in the box", you have just turned this into a pi$$ing contest.
Avoid all that. TELL him he's blocking your view. I don't care if he is really blocking it or not, he is somewhere where he really isn't supposed to be, and he is gaining an advantage from it. If he can still steal the signs from the box, good for him. But the easiest way of keeping him from taking advantage (which is how this post started in the first place) is to push him back by SAYING, "Coach, you're blocking ny view. I need to be able to see the batter and the catcher."
