Defensive Charged Conferences

[carldog]

So for Fed...What does this phrase mean?

"The number of charged conferences permitted is not cumulative."

Also.....does this rule mean that in a 7 inning game, the 4th charged conference results in a pitching change, and the very next charged conference (number 5) results in a pitching change, and so on?

Thanks!
