One of the biggest difference I see between baseball and softball is the demeanor of the participants. Baseball players and coaches are primadonnas - if the umpire offends them in any way, they must have a conniption fit that won't stop until the umpire has had enough.
Softball players might say ONE word after a bad call, or give a look after a suspect ball-strike call. Coaches (generally) will come out to DISCUSS things, but you see FAR less dirt kicking idiocy in softball than you do in baseball.
THIS is the reason for less ejections.
