How about this game management from a recent ASA tournament (14U):
In the middle of the third inning, with a 5-1 lead, team takes a 2 to 4 minute team conference by the dugout before going on defense. Then comes out and expects (and is permitted by the umpire) to do full infield warm up. Happens two successive innings. The second time, the first two minutes were simultaneous with the PU and BU having a conversation with the UIC at the backstop about covering additional games. The game ends after 6 when the 1:30 time limit expires 30 seconds after the last out is made, and home team behind 5-2.
Next game, behind by two, this same team does the same thing before going on offense for the second inning. Umpire (same one) does nothing other than call for a batter three times.
