If a pitcher takes too long to deliver a pitch in a Baseball game, the umpire can call a "delay of game" penalty, which can result in a ball being awarded to the batter. This can also lead to warnings or ejections for the pitcher if the delays continue.

In baseball do the pitcher and catcher form?

I think you are asking what they form. If that is what you want to know, they are called "The Battery," because they work together to try and get the batter out. The catcher makes hand signals for the pitcher to see telling him what type of pitch to throw. The pitcher will either nod or shake his head to let the catcher know if that is the pitch he wants to deliver or not.
