Sorry if I misunderstood. Since this was your answer to the question, "When will you call time?", it sounded like you were saying that when the ball is in the circle, under the control of the pitcher, and runners are on their bases, you will call time.

Which (unless you're doing slowpitch) you shouldn't do.
