As we head into another baseball weekend (please don't rain), something I have been wondering about. This is not just Vanderbilt, but why do umpires worry so about teams leaving the dugout to celebrate and greet players who have homered, scored, etc. Vandy always does this but not in any way does it appear to be directed at the opponent in an unsportsmanlike manner. Players also quickly return to the dugout and do not hold up play. I realize at the Hawk there is not as much room as other ballparks, but the players do not get near home plate. Is there a rule about this? It seems harmless to me, and it just does not seem like it is necessary to try to put a cap on the excitement and enthusiasm of the players.
