out of curiousity, I can see ejecting the coach, but the runner seems harsh depending on the circumstances, but In this instance no umpire in the 2 man system is able to see the Runner touch or not. I see it more likely causing the ejection of the opposite teams coach, and starting a foofaraw that simply degrades the game into Craptown. Or are you making a call on the touch or lack there of without actually seeing the infraction??
