Not a huge time saver, but a pet peeve I guess....

If you know that you are going to have a courtesy / pinch runner for the batter, have them ready to go with a helmet on so they can come in as soon as the batter reaches base.

Bugs me to see the catcher get on base, then the coach call time, then go through his mental lineup of who is available, then yell out for that kid to run, then the kid has to find his helmet, then jog out to the base...

Ha Ha, Totally agree with you.  In the fall we run for the catcher all the time, as well as in tournaments.  I have always thought on a HBP or a walk it is the lamest thing in the world that he goes to the base.
