Why would you carry a coach's water for him? Just say, "coach, that's my partner's call, ask him." No need to be rude (initially ) , but send the coach to the source, not an intermediary.

I've never seen an umpire act as a coach's representative, the entire idea is foreign to me.

I'm not going to deliver a coach's question/argument to my partner....if the coach wants an attorney, he can go find one in the Yellow Pages.
