Game control is very important in these summer games, and in my experience, if you don't stop the bad behavior right away you could be in for long, uncomfortable games.
Ditto. I will also eject for violent disapproval of my call with obscene language screamed within earshot of spectators. Again, the word "bullsh*t" is in no manner obscene. F-bombs and GD/JC/SOB screamed loudly is not acceptable on my ball field. For language like that directed at me, they get run. If it's just out of anger at themselves or the situation, they get a warning, with an ejection if they continue or repeat it later. This of course only applies to 18 and up leagues. Youth ball is a different story.
