I. Don't believe it is as absolutevas some think.

What could be more absolute than this:
13.4.2 No player or coach shall use equipment in any way other than what
is intended by the manufacturer (for example,
banging bats and balls in a
dugout).
EFFECT—When brought to the attention of the umpire by the opposing
coach, the umpire shall issue a warning to the offending head
coach. Any subsequent violation shall result in the abused
equipment being removed from the game (not returned to the
dugout).
I'm not sure how someone could call himself a college umpire and not know a rule as simple as this.
