Not all fields are configured the same, so I'm thinking you are referring to the fence which extends from the backstop to the dugout.

As long as the coach is in DBT, that's fine by me as long as it is is just outside the dugout. No big deal unless s/he starts running at the mouth about pitches, then it's in the dugout and I don't really care if the coach cannot communicate the signals from there, not my problem.
