What gets them tossed?

I was told at a brief clinic last night:

When a coach argues Balls and Strikes from the bench:

1st Time -> Ignore

2nd Time -> Acknowledge

3rd Time -> Warn

4th Time -> Eject

If the coach comes onto the field to complain -> Eject immediately.

Thoughts?

In the 6th inning of a game last Friday I call a Ball, and hear "Blue, has the strike zone changed in the late innings" out of the right side dugout. I turn to look and the head coach is 10 feet out of the dugout in my direction. I asked "are your arguing strikes and balls" and he says "well I guess I am". So I say "well you are restricted to the dugout for the rest of the game". This is not an ejection offense in my state, but one to restrict to the dugout. If the coach is on the field eject or restrict, whatever is appropriate for your area.
