I've heard of coaches who want to time:
- How long it takes for the pitcher to release the ball once she starts her delivery
- How long it takes for the ball to get to second base on the catcher's throw after the pitcher releases the pitch
- How long the pitcher has the ball (looking for 20-sec violations)
- How long it takes their runners to reach first base
- Etc. etc.

Personally, I think it's a waste of time (no pun intended) for a coach to have a stopwatch, but they must think it's important enough to push for the rule change.
