then 2B says next time he'll just hit the runner in the face and it's on ME. SO I ask him if just threatened to injure another player . He mumbled nothing and we moved on.

should I have ejected him for the "hit the runner in the face comment" ?

Heck no, that's when you sweetly remind him that if he does, he goes to jail for malicious (intended and premeditated) assault. Then you won't have to throw him out, the ppolice will drag him off.

Aw, life is good, idiots abound (not you`ChesRef).
