The only thing anyone should care about when it comes to children's sports are the kids having fun and getting something out of it.
The coach's feelings don't count. They just don't matter. The baseball team wasn't put together to feed his fragile ego.
This idiotic hair fetish this frustrated dickhead has is only about his own comically dated notions of what is right and wrong.
He's barring a kid from playing baseball because he doesn't like his haircut. That's it.

See, theres where I dont agree with you.
Just because it isnt a professional team with players getting scholarships and going on to become pros doesnt mean its unimportant.
Who gives a crap about the kid's hair? The coach is asking him to be a team player. The rest of the team is cool, its the special snowflake thats causing issues.
Theres a lot to learn when you're part of a team, and the things that you learn will serve you well later in life.
I love it.
Employer: "Our dress code requires you to wear a tie and be clean shaven."
Special Snowflake Employee: "I dont like ties and my mommy says I dont have to wear them and I cant be parted from my amazing hairdo..."
Employer: "Awesome. You're fired. GTFO. NEXT!"
Its amazing what a slight change in context does.
Do you want to be part of the team or not? Either answer is okay, but there are consequences to both.
