We are blessed with a great "casual profanity" rule here in the Seattle Metro area.

If you're on offense and you hurl your little "F" bomb or "S" bomb or whatever, next batter is out. Third out of the inning? Tough S.

If you're on defense and you transgress, your first batter is out to start the next half-inning.

And you still have the right to eject.
We have a similar rule here, although some consider us to be cursed with the rule, not blessed with it. (Ironic, I know.)
But how often do you really need to call it. In the last four years I have called someone out for casual profanity probably twice. And personally, I don't miss hearing a batter yelling out the F-Bomb after he pops out to shortstop, and I certainly don't miss having my kids hear it.
