Ozzy and Jicecone are correct. Just because nobody is moving, doesn't mean they aren't aware of a potential bad throw to the pitcher.

When young infielders ask for time, as is the case here, I'll tell them to get the ball to the pitcher. Once they get it there, I'll ask if they still want time. Of course, most of the time they don't.

I just ignore older infielders who try the same trick. They know better and are just testing the umpire.
