Accually same thing as happened to you but better. Bottom of 7 in a 1-1 ball game. R3, 1 out, 0-1 count. Pitcher in full windup. As soon as he steps for delivery R3 is heading home. He is about 3/4 of the way to home before pitch is delivered. Catcher sees runner and starts to come up some but stays back so no catcher interference. Batter squares and tried a drag bunt but misses. Actually ends up clearing himself from any interference himself. I got a stirke for the missed bunt, catcher drives for runner and gets him on the hip. SAFE!! BALLGAME!!

Coach argued for only about 10 seconds which surprised me a little. Partner and I change gear to get ready for 2nd game. Hit the field again, coach comes up to me and apologizes to me cuz a fan of his team tried to get into my face but the AD handled that and then he apologized for yelling at me cuz he said he really did not see the whole thing. His Assistant and the catcher both told him it was a good call.
