ejection question
If/when a coach gets ejected, is there a rule that states he cannot "attend" the next game?
Can someone point me in the right direction to the penalty for the next game? Thank You! |
I believe it is up to each individual state to decide the penalty for ejections. In Iowa, the penalty is removal from the rest of that day and the following contest at that same level.

Maybe I should have said FED game in orig post. But in FED, isn't it an automatic next game suspension? I was just wondering if he can "attend" the game. |

My guess is that most who have a suspension policy do NOT have the umpires enforce it. If the coach violates the suspension rule, then additional penalties apply. |

That's what I am looking for, is something in writing stating the procedures. Any thoughts where I might search for such procedures? |

Even if the EJ comes with an auomatic 1 game suspension, the ruling committee could vote to suspend the individual for more than one game if this is a repeated offense. In my association, During the game we simply write down the number of the individual we ejected and the inning it occured in. After the game we phone the assignor (followed up with an E-mail) and tell him the circumstances of the ejection - End of Story. The assignor then forwards the report to the appropriate AD. Same is true for every league I umpire in. I do not answer questions about ejection penalties. That is left up to the presidents of the leagues we service. Pete Booth |

There is also the post game suspension, and the suspension of a pitcher. |

No I do not but that seems to be the only rule code in which umpires tell the coach what the EJ penalty is Did you ever see a major league umpire tell the manager his player has to sit the next game. Answer NO - That is left up to the Commissioner's office and also the players union. Pete Booth |
