Maybe he wants to know who won the replay?

If a ball goes out of the field of play (i.e. in the stands, dugout, or over the fence) it is a dead ball. So all of those rules should be ruled out. If there is a rule in your association about leaving the dugout then there is nothin to discuss, they left the dugout and you took to appropriate action. But this has nothing to do with a live ball and sometimes a warning will suffice. The umpires are not supposed to affect the game, they are supposed to officiate it. Had the umpires not been there, a different team would have won with no objection. A 10-2 ballgame is a game that should just end on its own.
