Question

Game on Saturday, LL minors (9-10). PU calls time while pitch is in air toward plate. I think PU realized a quick pitch and batter has just stepped in box. At this level umpires are dads and assistant coaches and have little training. In an effort to protect batter (my assumption) he calls "time".

Curious on this one. How would you call the HBP on this one. Dead ball or award B1?

I would think PU should not have called time and then rule illegal pitch and assess any penalty, in this case HBP.
