Tell me how you handle this situation . . .

This is a "gimmee" in pro ball, and high level college. But don't let them do it in amateur ball, especially with youngsters. At my pregamme, I always warned the managers/coaches not to come out of the dugout before I give them "TIME". And I won't give it until all action has stopped on the bases.

If you allow this, you're taking a potential play away from the offense.
