I'm not an expert - just another umpire, but here is my view anyway...
As you know, your problem was you anticipated a swing, instead of seeing the swing. Since you were blocked, you should have asked your partner before making the call. Easy to say in the calm of an internet board, I know.
As to should you take back a strike? The purists would say "no" - but since it was all at your own volition, and not in reaction to a ballistic coach or whining player, I don't have a problem with you correcting your own call.
