F1 hits a batter and yells from the mound, "That was a strike!" I wouldn't run him but I'd make it very clear that I was not going to be yelled at by a 16 year old wanna-be. About half way to the mound, I'd say something like, "I'll be back here all game long, you don't wanna be on my bad side!"
Not bad, but I think I would have called time to dust the plate, quietly tell the catcher to go talk to his pitcher and tell him that "If he let's me umpire I will let him stay in the game".
