Unless I am reading it wrong or missing something, I would give him a quick warning about arguing balls/strikes while he is in or near the coach's box, and then when he leaves that area to argue some more... bye-bye. Don't worry about them sitting out the next game, we don't eject them, they eject themselves with their demeanor and comments.

Not that I am one of them, but some might say you did a disservice to the next ump by not ejecting him, because he might feel that this behavior is allowed. I don't think that far into it, but in short he should not have been around to see the end of the game.
