Mr. Rutledge:
It is not in writing - yet, however in the Great White North (Canada), the instructions to the umpires at the National tournaments last year was that this was to be an automatic ejection and any other similar foolishness was to also be dealt with.
This was to be so at all levels, regardless of the "importatnce" of the game, the inning, the score, anything.
Now, this isn't Pro, NCAA or FED, but for what it is worth, it is the "best" amateurs from the various divisions from across the country with usually the "best" umpires from the areas as well.
