I and apparently the crew working the OP disagree.
The rule means you can't go out and "visit".
If C is yanking him, I wouldn't consider that a visit.

I didn't mean to imply that. I meant to be stating it. UMP25 already answered this, but the pitcher has to complete the at bat before he can be "re-visited." OBR also state 2nd visit to the same pitcher in the same inning gets him yanked - Skip doesn't have to tell us he's pulling him. The only exception to completing the at bat is injury.
