Chatty umpires

[ntxblue]

Never have been asked this one before - never encountered it either. I wasn't at the tournament, so this is second hand from my daughter's perspective.

During a tournament this weekend, the BU just wouldn't keep quiet. He talked the whole game to whatever player was near his position. Normal chatter between BU and player usually happens during "breaks". But this BU talked all the way up to the pitch - probably affecting the concentration of the infielder. Also, his position was extremely close to the players, which also made them feel uncomfortable.

Usually common sense and courtesy prevail. How should a player handle such a situation? Should she have the coach talk with BU? Suggestions please.
