MLB Ejection 167: Dan Iassogna (4; Joe Girardi)

HP Umpire Dan Iassogna ejected Yankees Manager Joe Girardi for arguing strike two and three calls in the bottom of the 9th inning of the Indians-Yankees game. With one out and one on, Yankees batter Brian McCann took a 0-1 fastball from Indians pitcher Cody Allen for a called second strike. Replays indicate the pitch was located over the outer half of home plate and midpoint high (px -.283, pz 3.505 [sz_top 3.490 / MOE 3.573]) while the strike three pitch was located below this height, the call was correct. At the time of the ejection, the Indians were leading, 3-1. The Indians ultimately on the contest, 3-2.

This is Dan Iassogna (58)'s fourth ejection of 2015.
Dan Iassogna now has 15 points in the UEFL Standings (11 Previous + 2 MLB + 2 Correct Call = 15).
Crew Chief Dan Iassogna now has 3 points in Crew Division (2 Previous + 1 Correct Call = 3).

This is the 167th ejection of the 2015 MLB Regular Season.
This is the 79th Manager ejection of 2015.
This is the Yankees' 5th ejection of 2015, 3rd in the AL East (TOR 10; BOS 8; NYY 5; BAL 4; TB 3).
This is Joe Girardi's 3rd ejection of 2015, 1st since June 24 (Alan Porter; QOC = N [Check Swing]).
