Ejection Report:

In the bottom of the first, I issued a warning to HomeTeam batter #15 for carelessly throwing a bat. In the bottom of the third, HomeTeam batter #15 again thew a bat carelessly, hitting the catcher in the shin guards. I approached HomeTeam Coach HomeCoach and asked him to remove #15 from his lineup and place him on the bench.

In the top of the 6th, HomeCoach approached me and advised #15 would be entering the game as the first baseman. I allowed the substitution, then ejected #15 from the game for his actions in the first and third innings.

I don't think that would go over well in any well-run league.

Yeah, makes sense. I'm thinking of a situation in youth basketball where I might suggest a coach pull a kid rather than deal with it myself.

1. I can't force him to do it.

2. If he does and later puts him back in, I'm not going to eject a kid in the 3rd quarter for an inadvertently hard foul in the 2nd. If I didn't pull the trigger then, I've given him a 2nd chance.
