At higher levels of competition, Im not sure that we need to be babysitting the coaches and making sure they arent committing rules infractions. Rec ball, 8, 10u B games, sure. But a varsity high school game, or highly competitive club ball game, not so sure. Football officials dont stop play and keep a team from running an illegal formation. Now, if the coach did in fact ask the official and he indicated it would be ok, and then nailed him for it, that is a problem.
The case play in the FED book, 3.1.5 covers this exact play and says nothing about stopping the play before it happens. In case play, Coach moved F3 behind the catcher as backup, result is an illegal pitch, ball on batter, runners advance.
