Batter ready for pitch

[Dakota]

I will allow the batter time to get set before each pitch. It can be a safety issue if you allow the pitch before the batter is watching for it.

That said, I won't allow a complete little ritual after the first pitch. But the remedy is not to signal for a pitch - it is to warn the batter to get ready, and if she doesn't, call a strike - no pitch is necessary (and, as I said, may get someone hurt.)
