If the rules you are following allow a restriction to the dugout for this offense, you followed the rules. Its your call, and your call alone. Despite what your partner or the coach thought, you made the call in accordance to the rules, and can live with it. Thumbs up in my book...no questions needed!
If the rules state that this action is cause for ejection however, restricting her to the dugout is not an available option, no matter how you may personally feel. There are lots of rules in the book that I don't agree with, but we must enforce them all evenly and equally! That's the job of an umpire!
