Thank you for some of you looking through the obvious sterotypes for coaches to give some insight to this issue. The question was what else could I have done? Later in the game between innings the umpire at first base told me "off the record" at my request that he saw what I saw - the runner safe and in full contact with the base. I respect umpires and their authority on the field. I also expect them to respect the players and the game enough to do what it takes to arrive at the correct calls and rulings during the game.
