When the coach asks where the pitch missed, and the catcher shrugs her shoulders, that is telling everybody that is watching that she (F2) thought it was a strike and the umpire missed it. It's going toward the direction of showing up the umpire.
I don't know that I would be so obvious as to brush a clean plate, but I would say to the catcher, "If you don't know where it missed, ask..I'll tell you."
If I did miss the pitch (it happened once
), I will say, "Sorry catch, I missed it." I will say this loud enough for the catcher
and the batter to hear.
What some coaches and players don't seem to realize is that I
want to call strikes...gets the ball in play, keeps the game moving and everybody interested
