To SC- Mattinglyfan's post doesn't really state the circumstances well, I took it to mean that when he went to the mound, THEN his catcher wasn't allowed to answer his question of where the pitch was. If what was meant was that the catcher couldn't answer right after a pitch, then I agree somewhat with the umpire to not say anything. Any good coach would know not to proceed that way anyway, because unfortunately, umpires (like coaches, believe it or not) are human and if you show them up, you or your team will pay for it. However, many of the posts here are butchering the coach, ignoring the lousy game management of the moron behind the plate. If what Mattinglyfan meant was that he couldn't ask during play, then I misunderstood the post and for that I will apologize.
