				Extra warm up pitches
			 
			 
			
		
		
		
			
			What is the word on extra warm up pitches in NFHS, ASA, NCAA?  Pitcher pitches five warm-up pitches, but the umpire is engaged with umpire duties elsewhere and in not ready to proceed, can the pitcher continue to “warm-up?” 
 
After warm-ups, if the catcher is temporarily unavailable, (tending to a minor first-aid issue) can the pitcher practice low speed pitches with F5?  I told the pitcher to hold the ball; coach asked, “Why can’t she throw?”  “This is the NCAA coach, she gets five and no more.”  Was I right?
