What is it with umpires who don't know this rule? I've seen umps call runners out for giving their coach a high-5 before time's called. To me, that does not qualify as physically assisting someone - just physically congratulating someone. 
Glad to see that there are others who know it.

I haven't decided if I should call it from the dugout or the outfield. Apparently, both have really great views!
Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!
I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.
