Mike,

Talked to Chick last night and his point, which you and others I believe have said, is that there is nothing in the rules that gives umpires the authority to stop a play in progress due to unsportsmanlike conduct. I thought that was happening in the flagrant crash at home but he says it is the interference that kills the play and then a dead ball ejection. According to Chick, it's a Henry Pollard rule and it may go away next year or we will get a rule into the book. So, hopefully no one will have to enforce this rule.
