I'm adding post I made on this to describe 2 different situations:

Had two check swing situations I thought PU didn't handle correctly. What do you think if you saw them? I'll try to describe.

1st one was LH batter, slapper, no runners. Moves through the batter's box and slightly moves bat forward but pulls back. Ball hits batter while she is clearly in the batter's box and ball was about halfway into batter's box when it hit her. PU calls Dead Ball and awards 1B. Candrea comes out asks if she swung at pitch. PU goes to 1B umpire who, for reasons I can't comprehend, says yes she did, call changed to DB strike. Why would PU go to 1B Umpire? If nothing else I figured they should get all umpires together on this one.

2nd one was LH batter again, runner at 1B. Check swing asked for and PU again goes to 1B Umpire. There was no steal on the play. Again why 1B Umpire?

On your 1st one, I would assume that once the batter/runner went to first the 3rd base umpire went to the position by second base and was no longer on the line. Following the NCAA mechanic then she went to the umpire on the line.

2nd one follows the new NCAA mechanic of going to the umpire on the line for all check swings.
