It is not my intent to hijack the thread away from should or should there have been an ejection, but rather let us focus on the timing of the Timeout request.

F1 had just come to his Set Position (SeP) when B2 requested a TO and then the PU granted B2's request. I have no problem with granting B2's TO request while F1 is in the Stretch Position (StP) but I have qualms about granting it once F1 is in his set SeP. While being in the SeP is not that same as F1 starting his pitching motion. Once in the SeP F1 can pitch or start any number of defensive plays on Runners that are on base. This is not to say that the defense cannot start a defensive play when F1 is in the StP, but I just believe the SeP is an altogether different animal when it comes to granting the offense's TO request.

What say you?
