It comes from the FED rule book.
Look at the rule dealing with a pitcher intentionally throwing close to a batter. There you will find the options that the umpire has to deal with this. The choices are either: a) eject the pitcher, if the act is judged to be intentional, or; b) warn the pitcher, if his intentions are in doubt.
I don't see anything there about warning the other team or other pitcher. So tell us, please, where did you come up with that?
