IMO this speeds that game up, the on deck guy or a coach can get the ball, the catcher can throw the one I give him back and get the sign from the coach and we can get moving.

Where I work, neither the ondeck guy nor the coach will chase foul balls, unless they happen to roll right in front of them. F2 is going to chase it no matter what I do, so I might as well get a ball to F1 right away to speed up the game. I can't call "play" with a foul ball lying by the backstop, and I'm sure as hell not going to go get it.....
reading the other responses, this may be more a matter of the level of ball. I gotta get to the 'ballboy' level so I can do what yall do!
