Keep it simple. You basically made a "mountian or of a mole hill".
And then you had to eject him also?
If this was MLB fine etc., but you are the official lineup and telling the coach what to do is
good umpiring.

I agree. Rather than asking "are you sure you want #3 to run?", I'd tell the coach "#3 can't run because ..."
If the coach continues to insist (I can't imagine that happening), then the actions of EJ and Out are justified.
And, while "you" is a magic word, it's only so if it's followed by unflattering adjectives, or specific actions / directions.
