All 3 major codes differ slightly.
Ozzy gave you the OBR version.
In FED, the ump must dump the pitcher (no mention of the coach/manager) if he deems the pitcher intentionally threw close to a batter. The warning is given only if there is doubt as to intent.
NCAA says warn both coaches, unless "drastic action" is warranted, in which case the pitcher may be dumped (but not the D coach, unless the umpire believes it is appropriate). NCAA also allows the umpire to warn both teams at any time, including before the game starts. Apparently, the NCAA likes warnings.
