Hehehe,
I have never met an umpire that has called a balk for a pitcher taking his sign while not in contact with the pitcher's plate.
Not one . . . never, ever.
So please define "taking a sign" for me.
With r1 and r3 and the catcher goes out in front of home plate and gives "signs" for the defensive actions if r1 steals . . . so that is "giving signs." Would you that are OOO require F1 to be in contact with the pitcher's plate while taking this "sign?"
And if you wouldn't, please direct me to a rule or written interpretation that defines what "type sign" can and cannot be given.
Sheese, work on your safes/outs, ball/strikes and fair/fouls.
Watch for a quick return pitch and enjoy the game.
