Leaning over the plate before the pitch is not prohibited by 7-3-5, which concerns batter interference with the catcher's throwing or fielding.

In fact, leaning over the plate prior to the pitch is not illegal provided that the batter is legally in the box, so don't tell your pitchers to say anything to the umpire.

Teach them to pitch inside instead.
