Personally I love to hear coaches tell their pitchers and batters to adjust. The "he's been calling it all day," "Bring it down, adjust to what he's calling" are the right comments. Coach isn't complaining, he's teaching his kids to go with what's called and play the game there. It shows they're paying attention and it teaches the kids not to blame the ump for not "getting the call."
I had a team twice one Saturday several weeks ago and in the 2nd game I heard the coach say to his batter "He's been calling it all day. Swing the bat." It told me that he didn't have an issue with the zone, and that the kids should have picked up on what was a strike, and THEY need to do their job at the plate.
Your PU was way out of line (unless he had been hearing it all day and thought it was a coach - as mentioned in another post)
