I did not get the whole story, but this much I know. If you have to tell the coach to take care of it, then he doesn't understand what his job is. Umpires don't eject players or coaches, they eject themselves. Run him immediately, and then tell the coach he needs to get control of his players.Don't be afraid to take action in an amateur game, mainly because in summer ball, the coaches have no clue as to what they are responsible for. The next time you might be wondering if you were too stern, think about when they ask if they can appeal a foul, ball, or if your partner who is in C can "get help" for you on a play at the plate.
