Between Innings

[DG]

I talk with my partner before the game, and after the game, and during an innning if we need to get together on something and he calls me to discuss something, a rules interp perhaps.

Never between innings. I have been called to discussions between innings but I would rather not have them. If I am working the plate I will not call my partner to a between inning discussion.

I agree, though I personally see no difference between " during an inning", and "between innings" when determining if I need to converse with a pard or not.....

I'm with the consensus. Lawrence nailed it pretty well: zero to once per game and never after a questionable call or incident. Trot out to short right and enjoy the breeze.

In the Fall we are more likely to chat, in the spring it's a no-no.

During an inning means there is a decision to be made and a discussion will help with making the right call. Between innings is just chit-chat.
