Now the manager starts yelling at me from the dugout what a terrible call it was, his player didn't bobble the ball, I was out of position, blah..blah...blah. I decided to ignore him, so he charges out of the dugout and again starts yelling, asking me if I'm going to answer him or not. I gave him a polite "that's enough, please go back to your dugout." He says it's a ridiculous call and heads back to the dugout. It was probably one I should have had an ejection for.

Well, HTBT, but I can certainly give you credit for patience. However, the moment he stepped out of the dugout, he certainly would have been gone, especially if he charged out like you said.

Fry him, and play ball.
