Off-hand, either from coaches or umpires on the DFP board - what is the appropriate way to address a concern with a play to a field umpire? Let's say a play occurs where the field umpire should have the call/see the play occur but does not (e.g. a runner going from 1st to 3rd is obstructed by the 2B, but the FU is either blocked himself or just doesn't make a call). I would assume time is requested from the PU, but then what would be the right way to handle the situation?
> I don't believe yelling across the field to the FU would be correct.
> I don't believe running/walking across the field to the FU would be correct.
Does a coach approach the PU for assistance or is there another way to properly ask for clarification/address a matter with a field umpire? Thanks!
