Home team in the tournament game had jumped out to an early lead but their pitcher started throwing meatballs and it felt like one more inning and the visitors would win. 5 minutes left until the no new inning rule kicks in...V down 4 top of 5. With 2 outs AND 2 strikes HC decides its time to bring F9 in to catch. 5 minutes evaporated. Batter lines out to F6, visiting team was out of at bats home team won and advanced. VC refused to shake HC hand and the TD had to step in to bring an end to their post-game "discussion"

Totally legal!
Anything that's legal on an untimed game is legal in a timed game.
