This is actually a big change that if followed will speed up many games
and eliminate the "mind games" played by some teams to disconcert the pitcher.
Unfortunately most coaches are likely to be oblivious to this and puts more importance on us umpires to start from game one to make sure everyone understands the rule and its effects and possible penalties.
I plan on making it part of my pre-game conference.
