1. I always wait til we're away from the field before any sort of handshake/"good game" remark or anything of the sort is made.
2. Personally, if the on-deck hitter is within 4-6 feet, sure, I don't mind a toss. But if he's over near the fence and wanting to long-toss it to me, I'll tell him "bring it to me when you come up." I've found it saves a lot of time trying to chase dropped throws/bad throws.
