So, yeah, I'll let a coach call time and come out and talk to me about it. And if he does it right, he stays in the game.
But what Damon did, immediate ejection.

Rich didn't say it was about the strike zone, he said it was about balls and strikes. A checked swing in usually a ball and "yes, he did" is a strike. It doesn't matter that the mechanics are different, if a coach argues about a check swing call, he is arguing balls and strikes.
