Ejection

[johnnyg08]

Pretty simple to me. This sounds like a FED game based on your scenario and the ruling. Kid shoves another kid and every person in the stadium sees it, as the umpire, I'm obligated to rule on it whether is the water boy or the super star you're referring to. He should know better. Don't penalize the umpire for the kid using poor judgment. Yes, there might have been a jab that wasn't seen. Tough. What the umpire sees, is what his call is going to be. I've been around long enough now to know that when there's an ejection, somebody's going to whine. Tough...you do what you have to do as an umpire.
