I have never called a 20 second penalty strike. I can't count how many times I have said "stay in the box" or "get in the box" to batters. And then we occassionly have the 3B coach who hollers at the batter who is already in the box to "step out of the box", and I generally follow this with "you better step out with only one foot".
Usually, after an inning or two the batters and coaches learn I am not going to let them wander around.
My advice is keep them in the box and you will not have to worry about penalty strikes.
