Did you really have this happen to you or are you just bored?
Okay, let's say that the manager is a real moron and this really happened....
Umpire: "Coach, the opposing coach has appealed BOO (we don't call it BOT) so get me the proper batter up here or the game will not continue!"
Coach still argues, dump him - he's a total jerk anyway and would do his team a better service by not being there anymore.
Still, after more than a half century in the game, I have never run into a coach that was this much of an idiot - yet!
