Eh, personal preference. Times change.
"What do ya mean up? That pitch was belt high... look through the mask not at it!"
"What do you mean low? What are you looking at?"

No Rich, I don't give 'em any ammunition. "Where was that?" I usually ignore them. Although, once I did turn and say:

"Where was what?"
"That pitch, where was it?"
"Sorry coach, last time I saw it, it was in your catcher's glove!"
