That is not what I have said. I would just ignore a coach that is running his mouth from the bench. I do not answer questions from coaches sitting on the bench as a general rule. And I surely do not try to listen to what they have to say in those positions. If they have something to say, they can come and say something directly. And we know that is not happening on balls and strikes.

MLB must have changed their stances in their pro schools since Bobby Cox was ejected the other night while sitting in the dugout.

Umpire looked at him on pitch before, and then made a "huge" ejection following the next pitch. If was really funny looking since he did it as part of his strike/ball call.

Of course I think MLB's umpires eject guys now just to add a little excitement to the games. (kind of like hockey fights)

Thanks
David
