Yes. Immediately. He said "because she was still in the box" and I very quickly recited the above rule and he nodded toward the BU. The poor base umpire looked like he swallowed his tongue when I spouted out that rule and quickly recovered and said "well she hit the ball twice with her bat so it's a foul ball." I just smiled and said "really?". No need in pushing it. I got my point across. Interesting thing happened just a couple batters later. My first baseman stretched way out and got an out at first that sure looked safe to me. I'm old enough to just let things go and let them work themselves out sometimes.
