MLB Ejection 209: Bill Welke (5; Jean Machi)

HP Umpire Bill Welke ejected Red Sox P Jean Machi for throwing at Rays batter Steven Souza Jr. in the top of the 9th inning of the Rays-Red Sox game. With one out and one on, Rays batter Asdrubal Cabrera hit a 1-1 changeup from Machi for a home run while the first pitch to Souza Jr. was located inside and shoulder high, the call was irrecusable. At the time of the ejection, the Rays were leading, 5-0. The Rays ultimately won the contest, 6-2.

This is Bill Welke (52)'s fifth ejection of 2015.
