Did you know you have to grant time out whenever it's requested? That's what a parent told me last night. Pitcher was in her delivery, batter asks for time out, and steps back. I say "No" before she steps back, then ring I up the strike that was down the middle. The parent was screaming that I didn't know the rules, because I HAD to grant time out any time it's asked for. Then, he said it didn't matter that the pitcher's arm was almost half way through her delivery. I guess I need to study more.
