I'll play the devil's advocate. I'm not defending the verbal quips by any means, I think they should be warned for arguing balls and strikes.
I did notice early on that the more strikes I called the less argument I got. I'm not talking about calling a strike on a pitch that everybody in the park knows is a ball, but the ones that are a few inches inside or outside I give them. Everybody expects that to be called a strike unless you're calling NCAA ball or higher, and even then they expect a little on the corners.
