I have..........and will probably continue to start the clock on the first warm-up pitch by the Home Team Pitcher..........That's just the way we do it........
I have been in some tournaments that the UIC directed us to start the clock at the end of the Pre-Game Conference......
As far as using the clock to delay the game.........I will allow any LEGAL means to do that.........
Changing pitchers/catchers/etc.........
Having individual players call time to tie their shoes is NOT a legal means.........
I have stopped a game........and have had ALL defensive players tie their shoes.......and told the coach.........that's IT.......
But............if the coach has a legitimate request........i.e. - change a player..........then it is alright with me......
