Apart from "aw, c'mon, Blue, that was a great one!" or "thanks for calling an excellent game today" or similar, parents on my teams aren't allowed to address the umpires at all if they want to continue being permitted to watch their daughter's games from the sideline beside the infield.Which got him an earful from that pitcher's mom after the game.
Unless the umpire threatened or touched a player, the parent had no business whatsoever speaking to him.
