Perhaps that is why that was one of his last games with that league. I wouldn't put up with such shenanagins either.
Whenever I worked a "no new inning after..." league, I checked my own timepiece in my pocket or that of the official scorekeeper, and if it was close to stopping time I would announce the time so there was no questioning the legality of continuation.
I would never consider consulting with any coaches or managers to determine the correct time. That would be like asking each manager whether the runner was safe or out
