Under Definitions - Defensive conference - added:
"2. A defensive player approaches the dugout and receives instructions."
Until I hear what is said at the clinic, my assumption will be anytime the game is delayed by a defensive player entering foul ball territory or the catcher leaving the catcher's box to receive instructions from the dugout, you ring up a conference. Doing so is a delay in the game since you cannot have a pitch without all defenders save the catcher in fair territory and the catcher in the box.
New rule book's equipment section is half shadowed with new rules.
