How do you handle batters time?

[wadeintothem]

When a batter is setting up in the box, kicking around dirt and whatnot, and puts their hand towards you, signally what I think of as a "kinda" time out while they are setting, what do you do?

Certain batters at my 14U levels seem to do it, it is not wide spread.. I usually do nothing considering it more of a "gentlemans" time out between that batter and the pitcher.. do you hold your hands up in time out?

What got me thinking about it is while watching a team of 12U scrimage themselves yesterday (no ump), A girl had her hand back towards where an ump would be (obviously no ump to hold time), was looking at her foot positioning, the pitcher pitched, and the coach, standing behind the pitcher, called it a strike.. as you can imagine, much to the dismay of the batter.

Wondering y'alls thoughts on these type of "time out" while batters set up and how you handle it.
