MLB Ejection 035: Tom Woodring (1; Rick Renteria)

HP Umpire Tom Woodring ejected Cubs Manager Rick Renteria for arguing balls and strikes in the bottom of the 5th inning of the Cubs-White Sox game. With none out and three on, White Sox batter Paul Konerko hit a first-pitch cutter from Cubs pitcher Travis Wood for a three-RBI double; Renteria was ejected during the pitching change directly subsequent to this at-bat. Replays indicate the bottom of the 5th inning prior to Renteria's ejection contained only four callable pitches, all during Alexei Ramirez's at-bat, which ended in a walk; the pitches were properly officiated (#1 [pz 1.514 < sz_bot 1.59], #2 [pz -.122 < sz_bot], #3 [pz .967 < sz_bot], #4 px -1.652]), the call was correct. At the time of the review, the White Sox were leading, 7-3. The White Sox ultimately won the contest, 8-3.

This is Tom Woodring (75)'s first ejection of the 2014 MLB Regular Season.
Tom Woodring now has 4 points in the UEFL (-1 Previous + 3 AAA + 2 Correct Call = 4).
Chief Jerry Meals now has 3 points in the UEFL's Crew Division (2 Previous + 1 Correct Call = 3).

This is the 35th ejection of the 2014 MLB Regular Season.
This is the 13th Manager ejection of 2014 and Rick Renteria's third ejection of 2014.
This is the Cubs' 4th ejection of 2014, 1st in the NL Central (CHC 4; PIT 3; CIN, MIL 2; STL 1).
This is Rick Renteria's first ejection since April 29, 2014 (Al Porter; QOC = Y [Balls/Strikes]).
This is Tom Woodring's first career MLB ejection.
