FED Ejection. Proper or not?

[UmpJM]

northshoreump,

I pretty much concur with your observations, except in one respect.

I don't believe FED rules prohibit participants from wearing jewelry while in the dugout nor before the start of the game.

So, had an umpire observed a player wearing jewelry while in the dugout before the game - say while checking the bats and helmets, for example - I don't believe a warning then would be appropriate or "official" either.

Also, when one team does violate the jewelry rule, only that team is warned - not both teams.
