So in my sitch you would have recommended ignoring batter's comment and dealing with F2 (which is what I did). I'm getting good at this game management stuff!! It was one of my main goals for this year. Headed to the park now, bases tonight. Thanks SDS.
Keep it simple, just tell them hey guys, lets play ball and cut all that out.

They should get the point. If they persist, I always start with the F2. He's supposed to be a team leader and should know. He's right in front of me and can hear everything I say. I've reamed out many a catcher and no one on the field ever knew about it except for us and the batter who is usually about to snicker cause he knows what's happening.

Always seems to work for me.

But as suggested, take care of it, and don't let it escalate to something that you regret later.

Thanks
David
