To ensure that the requirements of this article be fulfilled, the umpire will deny any coach-defensive player conference that will violate the rule.
A conference should not have been charged. Using the correct interpretation, our OOO should have disallowed the coach back onto the field during warmups.

Here is a idea...
READ THE FRICKIN RULE BOOK FOR A CHANGE
Ozzy just told you the rule...In all 3 the coach is done with and needs to leave the FIELD of play as soon as his new pitcher starts to warm up.
