Well sure coach, why else would I call him out?
It's not common to come out after a half inning to ask about an earlier out. In fact I don't recall that ever happening to me.
Sometimes coaches have other motivations for coming out. Last year I had the HC who was in the 3B box come down to me after I kept his batter in the box for not avoiding a pitch, and in fact leading his thigh into it. He says "You and I know he leaned into that pitch but his Dad is in the stands and I know he is going to chew on me if I don't come down here to say something to you about it, so please don't smile as I walk away, because all I want is him off my butt". His head was bobbing like he was making an argument but he was really satisfying another need.
