A good principle but not an absolute.
How far do you take this?
If the pitcher punches a runner in the face after covering home on a passed ball and the home plate ump does not eject?
I would risk the wrath of my partner on this one. It is a very dangerous situation for a kid to be throwing bats and helmets around. I have seen two injuries that required ambulances because of this kind of behavior. No way am I going to see that and let it go. Can anyone think of any reason other than laziness or ignorance that would cause the PU
NOT to eject?
