Ignore it and bear down -- the chirping is seldom too bad unless you're really missing more than usual.
A certain amount of chirping is part of the game, especially on a near miss ball or borderline low strike late in a close game.
If it gets personal or obscene, the mask comes off and someone goes. I agree with Windy City Blue that ejecting from the dugout is bush, but so is the action of a player or coach who abuses the security of the dugout by crossing way over the line.
If I'm not sure who it is, I'll generally dump a player who has already been subbed for. Then I'll tell the manager I just did him a favor, and that he can return it by gettin a grip on his team.
