Then he takes his pitching hand and dips it into the dirt. He then twitches his fingers a little bit and then goes right to the glove. He did this before every pitch.

Helpers: F1 didn't rub his hand liberally in the dirt, but definitely scooped some up. On two or three pitches, he did wipe his hand on his pantleg.

What would I have done? I really think I would have delivered a "Knock it off."

Your move, gang.

Ace, where does it state that if a player is not violating a rule we are allowed to tell him to "knock it off."

Take Bob's advice and have two.
