I do not work any non-Fed baseball.

I work high school baseball and American Legion (they call it that here but it is still played under FED rules).

Even with that . . .

When I call a balk I tell what it is for . . . (I give an idea what it was, "hey, he has to PAUSE somewhere"). . .

If a coach/manager then tries to enter the field to argue the call (matters not to me FED or OBR if I worked that book) I put up the standard "STOP" sign . . .

It would be a coach's/manager's choice to come out further. He knows there is a possible penalty.

No Alexander Pope here, CC. Coaches/Managers do not come out in the games where I umpire. Pretty simple from my view.
