As I recall Lynn was pissed because things did not go well during the inning that was just completed and the Ump waited until he was in the dugout to decide to check him out.
I think this extra scrutiny is in reaction to how few Pitchers got caught (I think it was two, maybe three) and how spin rates went back up (so SOMETHING must have been hidden somewhere!!).
I'm guessing there won't be a significant increase in "catching" anyone. I think spin rates went back up as players and coaches figured out natural ways to increase spin rate since they were now deprived of the "help."

Lynn said that he wanted to get treatment between innings and the fact that the umpire waited resulted in him not thinking he could get that done.Nellie had more doubles than strikeouts every year from 1950 to 1963, and more triples (12) than strikeouts (11) in 1951 (682 plate appearances.)
