I am with Stevey as a member of the Kinder and Gentler Umpire Club.
(Really, someone is going to tell a MANAGER that they are going to "Toss them like a Salad?" Add one to my no partner list.
This situation happens often. But should only happen once. I call the TIME and try to get some attention with either my EVIL EYE or LOOK OF ANNOYANCE. Then, during some suitable time will TELL offender that he REALLY needs to get my attention to call TIME prior to coming onto the field.
Then if doesn't comply I toss him like a Scottish Caber.
