Just take the bare facts as they are. Look at it as if you were an umpire on the field at that game.
Then, think about how you would dare to take the ball out of the fielders' hands, or in this case the running shoes off the offense. You are depriving the offense of a chance to score...or, in this case, not allowing the defense to make the last out of the game.
If you call time in this situation, IMHO you might as well go put on your asbestos shorts before you come see me if I am your UIC. We'll find a very private place. It won't be somewhere where "WE" can talk, for only one of us will be talking in very plain English that is easily understandable.
Now...if the runner scores and all play has ceased, then call time and invite the coach over for a little tea, crumpets and friendly chit chat. I probably wouldn't run a coach at this point in Fed ball...but I would likely restrict them to the dugout. If their cream gets overly clotted or they otherwise eject themselves, then by all means run 'em.

LOL.. ok point "again" taken... I gotta ask... is that a foam plaque or a really hard laquered one?
And I looked and looked.. honigs... ump-attire.. and even the *gasp* asa & usssa sites... where do they hide the asbestos shorts? coz i couldnt find a pair to pre-order for a day most likely to come.
