IMO that's coaching. If her coach feels it's important for F1 to know the game situation, let the coach explain it to her. If there's a count on the batter, I will give the count before putting the ball in play. If asked by a player or coach I will give the number of outs in this situation.

Yup, I've seen that too. I agree - that's coaching.
I'll always give the count a delay and will always respond when asked the number of outs.
