Also along the lines of "game management"...
I was wondering if you ever gave the count during this sequence. I'm probably going to be signalling/announcing the count after the foul bunt, since we had a slight delay in play and since we now have two strikes. I'm probably going to be giving it again once we reach the third ball/full count.
If you did give the count, it seems like the batter would of had a funny reaction to being told she had two strikes, when you hadn't called a single strike on her! Or, it might have got some response from the defense or your partner for clarification.
Announcing that a batter has two strikes when you haven't called a strike on her tends to get somebody's attention!
