Coach asking you for help?

Had a coach this weekend ask me if I could detect when his pitcher was throwing a change up. Well, yes, you can, but only at the very end...and part of it may be that I've umpired her since she was 9, so I kind of know her tendencies and her motion.

BUt my question to you is...do you tell him? If so, when?

If a coach asks me the question mentioned, I simply answer "Yes", in a very polite manner. I have no reason to provide any more explaniation.
