Pretty Simple huh?

Coach starts asking me about the head of the bat, exactly how far did the bat come etc...

I told him, Coach, In my judgment she made an attempt.

He brings walks away and comes back out with a bat and asks me to show him exactly what I saw!

I told him, Coach, I am not here to give you a coaching clinic and In my judgment she made an attempt. Let's Play Ball! - Fortunately for him he walked away and continued the game.

(This was High School Playoffs - Last round before State)

You had the patience of Job on this situation. Once the Coach had come back to you with the bat for a "demonstration" I would have demonstrated the proper ejection of a coach trying to show up an umpire.
