Plate are no place for warnings unless the two teams have a history (proof) of throwing at one another. This should be decided upon by the TD, assigner or someone else in higher authority. The umpires will give this warning but it should not be their decision! Other than that, the plate meeting is for introductions, ground rules, in play/out of play, sportsmanship (if required by rule) and verification of equipment by the coaches (if required by rule).

I am assuming that you are playing OBR type rules. If so, the only warning in the rules is for "bean balling" in which both dugouts get the warning.

No. If an umpire removes a coach or player from the game "that is all she wrote".

Why would the opposition protest over an ejection against the other team?
