Yea.........
We saw A LOT of this in the 12U Nats a couple weeks ago. Call IP a couple times and the coach either fixes it or puts in someone else. They seem to get really excited when you call it with runners on.
Coaches were telling me that they concentrate on where the pitch is and teaching to to throw the bal that the pre-throw requirement are largely ignored. Best thing to do is call it, first time first inning. Keep calling it until it's fixed. This will help the pitcher in the long run, and help your fellow umpires during her next game.
