If the ball is dead, then the defense has done nothing other than delay the game. So I feel a warning is in order here. Tell them to get the dead ball to the pitcher as quickly as posible. And since balls or strikes can't be awarded. Ejection is the rule.
"Ejection is the rule"??

WHAT RULE?!!?

Warning = "Don't do that!" ?? Sure. But what in the #@!! are you going to eject them for? Making you feel like a bozo for calling "play" w/o knowing where the ball was?

Rich is right: have the stones to acknowledge YOUR error, get the ball into F1, "Play ball".
