You’re missing the point that caused the ejection.
When the ump gives a warning hs is supposed to tell the HC why. When Schnall asked, twice,, why the warning was issued, the ump refused to tell him and instead escalated the situation by telling him get in the dugout.
This is escalation solely caused by the ump. When the head coach asked for clarification on a bench warning the umpire is supposed to give it to him. The ump refused prompting the confrontation leading to the ejection.
All the ump had to do was tell him why he issued a bench warning. That’s it, instead he escalated instead of de-escalating.
The narrative about balls and strikes isn’t where it started. You can clearly hear Schnall ask twice, why are you giving a bench warning. If the ump just answers it, he doesn’t put himself in the situation.
Both handled it poorly, the ejection was totally out of line considering the home plate umpire caused the situation.

You still trying to claim he was tossed without a warning?
So, in spite of recorded evidence which shows a warning and a reason for the warning we have one claiming it was not issued?

You hit the problem on the head. When an ump gives the dugout a warning he owes the HC an explanation of why the warning was given. Instead of simply telling the head coach, he refused to talk to him, told him to go back to the dugout and escalated the situation to the point of a cheap ejection.
So yeah. He told him there was a warning. Then he told him why. Any more excuses you want to make for the "grown man"?
ETA: during the replay with the outfield cam, when they are showing the entire thing with the main ump, you can clearly hear him say its a bench warning, then you can clearly hear the words "balls and strikes".

Anytime it gets brought up, I have 3 responses:
1. The umps didn’t lose Saturday’s game 1-0
2. The umps didn’t give up 5 runs Sunday
3. The umps didn’t hold CC to 3 runs Sunday
Case closed.

Getting ejected is a last resort measure to light a fire under your team.
But not in the first inning. Then, you’re just a dumbass.

The home plate umpire caused the situation, huh? Not the guy raging out of the dugout. Interesting take.

Incidentally, if anyone really thinks Schnall didn’t have the game on in the clubhouse and wasn’t texting game strategy to his replacement…I have a bridge to sell.

Ump gave him multiple chances to get back in the dugout. Douche bag coach waves three fingers in the air telling Ump he missed three calls. Can't show Ump up in front of 25, 000 fans like that. Go out between innings and talk about it. The coach is a douche and reaped what he sowed.

Let’s not forget that the coaches have a pregame meeting. I would bet lotsa cash that the non tolerance for arguing balks and strikes was reminded.

What if Coastal knew they couldn’t compete with us
Coastal was in the CWS finals, something LSU has only done nine times in its history. They played LSU twice, losing by one run and by two runs. I think they could compete just fine.

I can understand peoples views on the short fuse from the ump but as a coach you cannot give someone the opportunity to make such a decision. Coach should have been way more calm about it and maybe discussed with the ump between innings.
I agree with you, but it’s even worse. This was a team with a 26 game winning streak and all the pressure that comes with that and with being the Cinderella. When they lost game one, what they needed more than anything else was to keep their composure. Their head coach should have been setting the example of poise and equanimity. Instead he was getting thrown out for roid rage in the first inning of a game that ended with the tying run at the plate.

The CC coach was arguing with the ump about a strike called, explain why the ump needed to educate the CC coach on the rule that neither team can argue about the umpire calling balls and strike.
He also had a rage look, cussed, told the ump he has been bad all year.
He was extremely aggressive, and his press conference proved he is a bully
The Coastal coach was intimidating and deserved what he got

I think the ejection was too quick, but Schnall 100% knew what the warning was for arguing balls and strikes. Did you not see the part where Schnall went started hollering at the ump it was not one call you missed, but three?
Schnall escalated the incident as well when he did that. Schnall knew from the moment he left the dugout what the warning was for, his statement that he heard some “vague” warning was pure BS. But even if it was true that he did not know what the warning was about when he first approached the ump, he knew what it was before he aggressively approached the ump and hollered that it was three missed calls.

Yes, if he simply answers why he gave a bench warning, it would not have escalated. LSU fans hate the CC coach so bad they can’t see reality.

The coach knows it is against the rules to argue balls and strikes
This is the narrative that’s false. He didn’t leave the dugout to argue balls and strikes and you know it. He asked why the bench was warned and the ump refused yo answer him.

According to the coach himself, the umpire told him exactly why the bench was warned.
Just stop.

OK running out there with 3 fingers up saying you've missed 3 isn't arguing balls and strikes.
I swear the people defending this guy is baffling.
