my partner was no help. this is the same guy who refused to have a pre-game with me the first time we worked together this year. he told me that he has been working for 30 yrs, blah, blah, blah.

i also agree that it is up to the league to enforce a suspension. but it is also incumbent upon the coach to know the league rules. by allowing his player to play he risked a protested game. (they lost anyhow)
I am not sure that an ejection is the way to go, but I am not going to argue it b/c I wasn't there. I will say that if he had not been ejected and the pitcher smoked him during his next at bat, I would only issue warnings and not immediatly eject.
