If that is not a warning, then OK, I didn't warn them. I'll just eject.

From 10-2-3f
f. Penalize for rule infractions, such as balk, interference, baserunning infractions, delay, unwarranted disputing of decision, or unsportsmanlike conduct.

A warning is a form of penalty and I can't find anything in the rules that prohibits an umpire giving a warning for anything (unless the offense is automatic ejection)

I would also emphasize to both coaches what was discussed in the pregame meeting about good sportsmanship
