Sounds like coach went to the wrong person, and the wrong person did nothing but direct him (eventually) to the right person (Jice). What do YOU do when the coach comes to talk to you and it's your partner's call. I expect that answer is simply to direct the coach to your partner --- which it sounds like is exactly what happened. I hope you don't expect your partner to A) run up the line and get himself into the conversation or B) have him emphatically doing something at the plate to get the coach to come to him.
If the coach is going to the wrong guy, then I *do* step up and say, "That's my call, Bill. Come talk to me."

No stomping of the feet or running up the line or whatever, but I do try to direct the coach.
