Unless it's really out of hand, I listen to the chirping the rest of the half inning.

When the head coach of that team walks by on his way back from, or on his way to, the 3rd base box, I simply say "I've listened to all I'm going to about balls and strikes." I don't stop him to confront him. I just say it as he's walking by.

No "Is that clear?"

No "Do you understand me?"

No "one more word and..."

Just a simple declarative statement. The next time someone does it, he goes.

That's almost always followed by "When I said I'd heard enough, did you think I didn't mean it?"
