Baseball has no time limit so it behoves an umpire to take his time and get the ejections correct.

I think now that replay is set up in every building, altercations should be reviewable as in the NBA. It would have not been cost effective to have this be the ONLY use of replay, but now that it is in place, there is little reason not to use it when determining who was hitting who in a 50 person mob. If the commissioner's office uses video for suspensions, umpires should be able to use it to determine these sorts of ejections.
