1. Working a FED game with a partner, I'm out in the field, partner behind the dish. Coach wants time to talk with his pitcher. Ok, 1 defensive conference. Now Same inning (it's a long inning), Coach wants time to talk with his pitcher. Ok, 2 defensive conferences. Now SAME inning (it's really a long inning), Coach wants time to talk with his pitcher. Partner says no citing the "making a travesty of the game" clause. Opinions?
2. If you're working out in the field, how do you tell your partner behind the dish he's nuts? Especially if you feel he's wrong on a rule.

I would call time and ask the pitcher if I can see the ball. With the ball in hand I would meet with my partner to find out what's going on. Perhaps he doesn't know the rule. If he does know the rule I would advise him to let the Coach visit with his pitcher any time he wants. What he does from there on in would be up to him. I would also do all that I could to never work with this guy again.
