I told the coach that when his player got to the pros he could do whatever they allowed but if it happens again in the game both him and the player could discuss how legal it was in the rules , on their way home.

While I haven't seen an infielder
throw dirt at a runner, you do see them kick dirt at the runner, pound their gloves at them, etc. all the time in the majors. Maybe that was what the coach really saw, and was simply exaggerating like coaches are wont to do.
