Don't know about ASA but in baseball the PU gets the choice.
He/She can eject the pitcher (or both the pitcher and manager) immediately OR warn the manager and pitcher and on the next occurance both are ejected.
Personally if I was very sure it was deliberate I would eject immediately. With a little doubt I would warn.
Some of the pitchers here as so wild that you would have to perform some kind of statistical analysis to determine just where they are actually trying to throw to.
It's like the throw the bat stuff. A flagrant throw can result in immediate ejection but generally a warning for the first offence.
