I have never seen all the parents from both teams ejected from a game. It is an arguable point that he has the right to do that. However, this guy is out of control and IMO does not umpire any college level or high school level ball. I know this because he does not know this rule, and he ejected all the parents from both sides. One parent complaining about ball-strikes gets them all ejected. Get real.
If I were coaching, I would call time and see if the other coach and I could agree to play this game some other time. If not, I would declare that I am playing the game under protest, that the umpire does not have the authority to eject all my fans, and that I am now playing at a disadvantage. Let the league president sort that out. There is no point in discussing rules with this umpire, he is an idiot. Or, I might just decide to pack my sh*t up and go the parking lot to meet with the players and parents, file my report with the league president, and let things happen. After the league president gets my report and 25 or so phone calls from parents this issue will be resolved for the future.
