That's a little more patience than I would've given him. I've seen some serious spankings on the field, but that's no excuse for a coach popping his lid. At the minimum, I would've said (in a calm manner), "coach, I realize you're upset, but if you want to talk to me, you'd better do it calmly." Depending on his attitude leading up to that point, I'd even go so far as ejecting him.
Maybe I'm wrong, but I can't stand a coach showing up an ump just for the sake of showing him up.

I haven't decided if I should call it from the dugout or the outfield. Apparently, both have really great views!
Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!
I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.
