The "commissioner" (or board, or league president) needs to be involved and not take the side of the players / managers.

This would do the trick. Notice that Bob's first suggestion is not preemptive suspension, but rather the institution of suspension policies. These should be progressive, for instance: 2nd ejection, miss 2 games; 3rd ejection, miss 5 games; 4th ejection in a season, banned from the league.
