They don't get to argue balls and strikes - even when you've kicked it.

I would like to see you write up a report on that ejection. It would go something like this. Well the coach was questioning my strike calls, I told him to stop but he kept going. He went too far, and I decided that he must go. But then I thought to myself, if I eject him now, I will look like a low class rookie, I better do it later. So between innings, as the coach walks by me about 15 feet to my right, minding his own business, I yell "that's it, you're gone!" and I eject him. He asked me what he did, but I refused to talk to him because he has to leave the field.
I have a question also. How would you handle this situation if the coach who is yelling does not coach 1st or 3rd? Do you toss him when he comes to you with a subsitution?
