It is my opinion. . .
that because you said "Ball, no he didn't go", you have declared two things:
a) You saw that he attempted to check the swing
b) That he successfully checked it and therefore did not go.
Declaring "Ball, no he didn't go" is telling everyone in the park those two things. 90% of GOOD coaches/catchers won't even ask you to check if you declare that. However, if they do, you are bound to check. Since you declared it, I would strongly suggest that you do NOT go to your partner without someone asking you to go. It looks like you're second guessing yourself. JMHO
