1) We all know the minute is a written rule, and its application is subjective. It seems the interp is that 5 pitches thrown expeditiously fits the rule and no stop watch is required.
2) We should not tell a catcher to throw down or for that matter tell any player to do anything, just inform them of the status (one more, last pitch, etc.)
