The pitcher's dad decided he should call his son over from the mound to have a little talk...no one thought anything of it until the ump said "play ball" and the opposing coach came out & reminded him that the dad's little chat was visit #2.
We were up by 1, ended up losing by 4. But no one got tossed.

Interesting.
A Manager/Coach may come out twice in one inning and replace the pitcher on the 3rd trip that inning.
A Manager/Coach may come out 3 times in a game and must replace the pitcher on the 4th trip.
