Should the umpires have killed the play as soon as the ball hit the pitcher and bounded away?
No, unless immediate medical might be needed.
Should we have let play continue until all playing action stopped before killing play?
Yes, unless immediate medical might be needed.

Given the circumstances of an obviously injured player, I'm not sure I would have ejected the coach, even if the rules do allow for it. I guess that is a HTBT to see what the coach was really doing to see if I would have ejected the coach.
