Check Swing Appeal

[whiskers_ump]

Calling in a tournament Sat. Had an ex high school coach that is
in a heated game with a team from same community.

R1 on 3Rd, R2 on 1B, batter has 3-2 count. I am BU, in C position.
On the pitch, R2 breaks for 2B, catcher up quickly, too quick.
Blocks PU view of the ball and batter. PU immediately asks "swing"?
I clearly see batter lung towards ball, trying, but unsuccesfull
in holding up. I gave a loud sell "yes". Coach comes unglued.
Gets to me before much can happend and is shouting "You cannot make
that call!" "You are out of position." "Rule book says you cannot
make that call." "Coach, inning is over, that is the third out."
"No, I am protesting." "Coach, don't think so, read your tournament
rules you received. NO PROTEST. Secondly, that is a judgement
call on a ball/strike and cannot be argued or protested." She finally
goes to the dugout, and I see her with the Rule Book. She is on 1St
base side, so I very nicely suggest she look in the umpire section of
the book and POE Section. See her reading, got up once then slammed
book down. Never heard another word from her.
