No, but I would warn him that there will be no throwning of equipment in anger.

As above, unless he had already been warned for throwing bats because of his player's error!

Eject a coach for bringing a rulebook on the field, wanting to "discuss" a rule interpretation?
No. But I would eject a coach for making on-field demonstrations to showup the umpire. The rule book is not necessarily an on-field demonstration.

Yes, and yes. I have answered parents questions numerous times. We are fortunate here in that the vast, vast majority of our parents and coaches are well-behaved and respectful. Emotional? Sure! But, generally respectful.
