1st question - I agree with MCrowder. The coach is not going to discuss another umpire's call with me. Talk to that umpire & we'll handle it properly.
2nd question - The college game has this one pretty well covered. "Rounding & returning" obstruction the first time by a player gets a warning, the next time(s) by that same fielder, leads to a 1 base award to the obstructed runner. Put a sever penalty on the infraction and it will go away. I've had to issue a few warnings, but no awarded bases.
3rd question - This one will depend on a few things - age group, level of play, how loud is coach (only heard by player directed at, heard by a few players nearby, or have the dead been wakened). If the coach is speaking to the other team this way, it's dealt with immediately.
