sal it is pretty obvious that the pu was not in ear shot by watching the video.
im sure we can agree on this.
maybe in those vides you mentioned no ump stepped in. but in the majority of cases i would bet a fellow umpire would step in, to at least make an attempt to try to difuse the situation.
at least if the pu had been closer i doubt the manager would have walked past him to put on a show at the plate.
