After the checked-swing third strike, there were two outs, so the umpires moved to A and C.

Durham didn't say what level this was, but this is the new NCAA mechanic (and it's frequently used at other levels as well).

What Bob said.

It was a mid week DI game. The thing that was strange on this was the attempt at an arguement was delayed. We moved back to A and C and a pinch hitter was reported before the coach tried to argue the call. Usually this argument comes sooner in the sequence. We had R2 and R3.

The difference is the HCs attempt to influence (all) future calls rather than change the present check swing call.

Normally I would agree, but not in this case.
