For those who give credence to authoritative references, this specific issue is addressed in the MLB Umpire Manual, to-wit:
Actions by players specifically intended to ridicule an umpire are grounds for ejection. Examples include drawing a line in the dirt to demonstrate location of a pitch or leaving equipment at the plate after striking out with less than two outs.

The MLB Umpire Manual is written for major league umpires, not LL umpires, low adult league umpires, etc. What is written don't make it right for all levels...
