To me that is a hard one to both buy and sell. If I am behind the plate I have really no idea if the pitcher is taking signs or not. I can have some sort of guess but thats all it is, just a guess and I can not penalize for that. That would be a very hard sell to any coach. The only one who could really see that is a BU.
I had that in a game a few years ago and I just looked at the manager and told him "How am I supposed to know what they are doing, I am behind the catcher". End of conversation. However I do try to explain to the both catchers at the begining of the game to not give signs to his pitcher until the batter is in the box and ready to go. Most pitchers are on the rubber and ready before the batter anyway.
