Glen -
What your coach in question was probably doing was giving the signs to the catcher who would then relay them to the pitcher. My daughter's coach used to do this all the time. It's easy when the dugouts are close to home plate, but when they were farther away, he would plunk himself down outside the fence a little closer to the dugout. Granted, this was PONY, but nobody ever gave him any grief (even at the Nationals in Raleigh).
I would probably let it go unless he became a distraction.
