JM,
You raise an interesting and problematic question. From your posts, you seem to be a reasonable and conscientious student of the game. Others, as we well know, are not. You could well imagine the repercussions of allowing coaches to scratch any umpire whom they felt wronged them.
On the other hand, in my association high school coaches are allowed to submit a scratch list for their games (3 or 4 per year--not sure). BUT the scratches are not in effect until the following season. You might ask the local association if there is any such thing in place; otherwise, there's probably nothing you can do other than to politely mention your concerns. Good luck!
