I would have as well. But then again, I hate umpires trying to make a point. Your job is to call balls and strikes, not enforce yourself into the game.
Three baseball umpires are having lunch together. The first umpire says "Well, a lot of them are balls, and a lot of them are strikes, but I always call 'em as I see 'em."
The second umpire says "Hmph. I call 'em as they are."
The third umpire slowly looks at his two colleagues and declares "They ain't nothin' until I call 'em."
