Really? In fall ball? You should have given this coach a head start on spring.

I get a few more feet and a parent from the offensive team intercepts me to let me know that he was sitting near the fence and that the ball clearly went over on the fly. I tell him, "Unfortunately, that's not how it looked to me- and I don't get the luxury of sitting right by the fence".
If your UIC was there in an official capacity, he never should have let the parent get near you. I probably would have avoided the parent as nothing good can possibly come from such a confrontation. But in fall ball, it is usually a bit more relaxed, just that the coach didn't get that part.
