Sal, I see your point, but I have to ask: what does a manager hope to accomplish in asking you where the pitch was? He's not pitching, so he doesn't really need to know "where your zone is." I think that concern over this point makes people think that the coach is chirping.
It might be practical and customary as you move up to answer this question out of courtesy. And I'm sure that some coaches ask more than others.
I'm a relative novice to umpiring, and I'd really like to understand what coaches might be aiming at by asking the location of a pitch. Thanks.
