Assistant coaches are only there to tell the BR to turn left, and to holler "back" and "go" to his runners.
Even though we have had the FED dugout restriction option available for years, I have never used it. IMO, if it is a serious enough offense to restrict someone to the dugout, it's serious enough to eject them.

I take the approach no matter how many there are of us umpiring.
If its a rule interpretation we'll be glad to discuss it.
If its a judgement call, holler at your players, not at me cause its
not going to change anything.
