I disagree. It's a rule.

FED - 6-2-2c (with or without runners)
OBR - 8.04 (no runners)
8.05(h) (with runners)
NCAA - 9-2c (no runners)
9-3e (with runners)

And it's the umpires job to enforce.

Uhh, you carrying a stop watch on you at the plate there pal?

You can quote all the rules that you want, none of you have the gonads to actually call a pitcher on this at age 12 - 13. I can see in HS ball and older youth ball but not this age group. And I can just about guarantee you that if you say anything to the coach, he's going to tell you to go $hit in your hat.
