I think you are right about the rules.. but I'm not sure how it could be written to clarify it more.

How many allow the catcher to say swing?

I have never stopped a catcher doing that. I could be the one who is way to lenient here... One thing I have is allota time behind the plate as a catcher.. and one who talked.. so I always think of how I did it; and I was rarely even warned and never ejected... that may lead to my leniency. A catcher talking smack to some degree is as much a part of the game as anything in my personnal view... I could be off base as I am applying Baseball experience to how the league wants it done in Softball.

I've been wrong on this board before and learned.. I can only promise to be wrong in the future!
