Implied time?

[TexBlue]

Speaking PONY, ASA and Fed, there is an implied time out when the umpire is not behind the plate, taking care of business. If the umpire didn't call it an IP (softball) it is definitely a IP. Same thing in baseball, I would assume. My son hasn't played in6 years, but if the ump didn't call it, it just isn't so. The coach can call it a balk all he wants, he doesn't have a leg to stand on. If he insists on being argumentative, he won't have a field to stand on either. No one calls a balk or IP except the blue.

It would be just like a girl on 3rd stealing home while the PU is cleaning off the plate. Even if he/she didn't call time, it is understood that time was called.
