As I read this, you are the assistant coach. Is that correct?
If so, then your job is to tell the runners to turn left. Period.
It's not your job to ask that the rubber be cleaned off. It's not your job to tell the umpire that you thought the call was terrible (especially after he's already discussed it with the head coach).
While none of the actions individually warranted an EJ (as I read them), I can see where some umpires would judge the cummulative effects as warranting an EJ ("the straw that broke the camel's back).
