Question

What mechanic do you use to fit in with the catcher who wants to set up directly behind the inside edge of the plate and the batter who wants to hang his elbows and hands out over the plate?

Had partner this weekend that had problems with this. He ended up doing some arguing with the catcher and possibly took away a strike or two because he couldn't see the inside egde.

I offered to him that he needs do his best to work with the catcher and explain that he wants to call strikes just like the catcher wants to have them called. To achieve this the catcher needs to do his best to let the umpire have a good view. This is all we had time to discuss...

Some other suggestions?
