Thanks.
I am unclear if he is cussing at you or cussing in frustration because his pitcher can't throw a strike. In my state cussing would get a coach restricted to the bench for the duration of the game and no ejection report is necessary. If a coach is cussing at on official that would cause an instant ejection and a report to be sent in. If you restrict/eject instantly then don't listen to any changes from him. He can send an assistant out to give changes if he is restricted, if he is ejected the assistant would have to do it anyway because we would do nothing until he is out of sight and sound. I would not forfeit a ball game unless he is a complete a**, and will not go out of sight and sound. Before you forfeit a game it should be so bad that you are pretty sure he will be fired over his lack of control when word gets back to the AD, if he is not on site already.
