As above, there are no rules to allow the umpire to do what you said they did... however, considering that you're a fan, perhaps you didn't hear or see something else. I've worked tourneys (rare, but it happens) where the TD's make themselves responsible for bats, so this may have been the case. What might have happened here (and I'm speculating) - is the bat made an odd sound when the ball was hit, and/or the hit itself caused a new dent to appear in the bat - either of which might have been enough that they wanted TD's to recheck the bat.
