This has never really been a big problem in Illinois, either. For all I used to care in high school ball, if a pitcher wanted to reach in his mouth and scratch his tonsils, as long as it helped him throw strikes I never made an issue of it. However, it's become an issue SOMEWHERE, so the FED is trying to crack down.

I agree totally. Its never been an issue when I was in TX and now in MS.
But obviously its a problem somewhere. Kind of like asking coaches to be in their box.
Who cares ... but obviously someone does.
