There have been some really good comments and suggestions posted you guys.
I would like to add a phrase or technique I picked up from a basketball ref and evaluator of NBA refs to the point the player made with that is two blue. When coach walks up to the ref and says that is two or something similar that is out of line but said quietely, he will take a couple steps away from the coach and lightly blow his whistle and tell his partners who are standing at different ends of the court, that the coach has a warning. No one knows what the coach said but everyone saw him say something and they now know that it warranted a warning. Here in softball, you could call your partner and state loudly so and so has a warning. Player now knows it, everyone in the stands and all teams know it. Of course, you need a partner or partners who know what to do when they get this type of info from you.
