Like for example in the game tonight with the A.J. thing against Justin Morneau. They got warnings after that. Can they get another warning and if they can't what would happen if they have to have another warning?

It usually involves a pitcher throwing at a batter, in the umpire's opinion. When an umpire gives a warning to both benches he his telling both teams that the next time a pitch comes close, or hits a batter, both the pitcher and manager will be ejected from the game. The idea is a good one because we don't want to see players getting hurt. However, it does take away the inside pitch, for the most part, for the rest of the game because the pitcher doesn't want the umpire to think he is throwing at the hitter. This will allow the hitter to dive over the plate while swinging at the pitch without the fear of the ball coming inside, a huge advantage for the hitter. Also, it is very difficult to know when a pitcher is throwing at the hitter or just trying to pitch inside.

No, cause you get only one warning and the reason why it's that when a pitcher hits another team's batter, than the other team's pitcher hits the batter of the other team, than the warning for the two teams and if any pitcher on any of the two teams hits another batter, then that pitch it's throwing out of the game, and that's why you only need one warning and not two or three in the game of Baseball!!!

Usually, once a warning is issued, the next infraction (typically being hit by a pitch) results in an ejection.
