In summer of 05 in the finals of a state tournament of 16-18 year olds I asked the TD to remove a fan who was cussing at the pitcher for hitting the batter in the elbow. Turns out the batter was his son, and the count was something like 1-2 so I don't think he did it intentionally. This team crowds the plate, that I already knew. And I found out later they get hit quite often, which I could have guessed, and the fans complain about it alot. Duh!
In any event, the TD went over to talk to the guy, and I paid him no more attention. He must have talked the TD into letting him stay because he was still there when I looked over there later, but he never said another word. Mission accomplished.
That is about the extent of my involvement with fans during games that I can recall.
