One sure way to get the offensive coach pissed is to warn his team for excessive HR celebration at the college or high school level. After a HR what I see most often is offensive players coming into the area around home plate. Occasionally there are bruised catcher feelings or a pitcher lingering around after giving up a bomb which poses a potential problem.

By rule the plate umpire is to keep the dugout out of the home plate area after a HR. I tend to avoid this confrontation unless I feel there are problems in the works.
