Agreed. MLB umpires have been using smart@ss comebacks forever--look at the Haller vs. Weaver video. I suspect when a manager comes out he knows this all too well. Going to the media and repeating what gets said like you're sooo shocked a major league umpire would disrespect you is a rat move in my book.
