Soooo, to clear this up:
Able at bat, coach can visit the pitcher one time, second attempt to visit while Able is at bat coach is removed from the game, pitcher completes his pitches to Able until he is out or becomes a Runner. Then pitcher is removed. OBR 8.06 (b)(c)
How does this relate to the following situation:
3 rd inning, one out, Baker at bat, 1-0 count, can the coach replace the pitcher? No other previous visit to the mound. ORB rule 3.05 (a)(b) in my opinion the rule reference the first batter of the game, or is it inning? Can this be interpreted to mean that the pitcher will continue to pitch to Baker until he is out or on base? Then allow the substitution?
thanks
