So, if the batter moves the bat, you are going to the BU every time it isn't a full swing?

Of course I check when asked at all levels too. I've never understood why a PU wouldn't.
So, if you see an definite check swing, you are going to go just to placate the coach?

I'm not suggesting an umpire not go for help if there is a question, but questioning why the umpire would go if s/he believes they ($.02 to Dakota) saw the entire situation and there was nothing to miss.
