Everyone on the field has a job to do, and it was the defensive manager's job to go to the PU as ask him to get help from you. The manager failed in his duties. The offensive manager knew the proper procedure, and rightfully got upset about it. (Now you shouldn't get so flipped out that you earn an EJ, but he did have a point.)

Bottom line: Follow the proper procedures.

You wait for the PU to come to you for help. He must come to you for help. You give him what you have, and then he is the one who would overturn the call. You also need to discuss at that point how you are going to handle the sh--house that is coming

Thank you

A gold star poster award for discussing the protocol. The original poster

My partner did not say anything (maybe he was blocked by the catcher) so I stroll in and have a private conference with my partner.

set off the AOOOGA alarm. Enough people have said this is wrong, and I hope he got the message.

As you said there is a METHOD. PU did see the HBP. If Def coach feels wronged. He comes out. Talks to PU... PU at his option, talks to BU... that's the way. Or at least some people do it that way.
