Add Jaksa/Roder to the group:
"Protest - If a manager claims that an umpire has misapplied a rule, he can file a protest. A manager cannot protest an umpire's judgment (i.e., his decision of a ball or strike, safe or out, fair or foul, etc.), but if such manager perseveres in his demand to protest, an umpire should accept it."

Sounds to me like, "Humor the manager before chunking him," rather than, "You must accept the protest."
To me, anyhow.
