901 (c) can cover a broad array of issues. When invoking this rule, be prepared for a nasty coach because it doesn't explicitly state safety violation.
The only other rule you could utilize would be 901 (d), but this would cause for disqualification for unsportsmanlike conduct.
This situation is much like throwing the bat after hitting a pitch, though unintentional, it is dangerous and usually the 2nd time, player could be disqualified. Most coaches are familiar with this and could relate to it.
However, preventive umpiring is always best; talk to the coach, explain your concern.
