Question

Just a question ? Should plate umpire indicate to the batter that on a dropped third strike he is not entitled to the run to first base if it is occupied ? I've always felt that it is not my job to instruct the batter, just make the right calls. There is no concensus among other umpires I've spoken to, some say telling batter he can't run is "preventative" umpiring, others say its coaching and not fair to either team. Thoughts ?????
