"Of course it was provable. The mitt fit. "
I didn't say it wasn't provable, just that in general you need a strong case for an ejection based on intent.
"Batter hit a home run last time up and hot-dogged it around the bases. Next time up, pitcher plunks him/her in the ribs. Need proof?"
I guess I don't have a retaliatory mind.
"This would be a good opportunity for his partner to step in and make the ejection"
I'll deal with my own problems, thank you. But I do think it's good officiating for the partner to approach when the argument starts.
