The defense will be charged a conference unless the coach opts to make a pitching change.

Right. I didn't mean to imply that there was one (maybe I just didn't make that point very well).

My point was that:

1) What the defense was doing wasn't a charged conference, so the part of the rule about the other team also having a conference doesn't even apply.

2) What the offense was doing didn't meet the definition of a charged conference (they weren't the ones who requested time out).

In summary: NOBODY gets a charged conference! :)
