A distracted player is a distracted player - you wanna take that chance have at it . . . bottom line is this - I did what I did and would do it again faced with the same circumstances. I'm sure you are an awesome umpire, although I have nothing to base that on, other than discussions here. You wouldn't make the same call - your choice. I think you would be wrong to allow that behavior to continue and possibly have an effect on the game. In my heart I made the correct call. I have no regrets and am not ashamed of what I did.
Do you umpire with that same chip on your shoulder?
