Should Umpires be allowed to put their hands on players?

Found May 18, 2009 on novafantasysports.com:
The rule is major league baseball is if a player touches an umpire a suspension is forthcoming. This is a similar rule in all four major sports, and it is a good one. Players should not come into contact with Umpires on purpose or on accident.
