Reply to "With runner at second, MIF gives pitcher signal for # of looks"

Well, I just got around to asking my son about this scenario and it looks like I'm going to need to eat some crow.  He told me for the first time this year, his team is doing this.  They do it by non-verbal sign.  They have a sign from the SS that will tell the pitcher 1 look or 2 looks.  Add another gesture and it tells the pitcher how many looks, then run the "daylight" play or inside move play.  Of course the pitcher has the option to change things up or step off if he sees something else going on he doesn't like, but the plays are there when there is a runner on 2nd.

 

So, I was wrong and my son didn't laugh at me when I asked.    He's a junior at a D2 and this is the first year he's done this.
