MLB Ejection 007 - Dan Bellino (1; Matt Wieters)

HP Umpire Dan Bellino ejected Orioles C Matt Wieters for arguing a strike three (check swing) call in the bottom of the 5th inning of the Blue Jays-Orioles game. With two out and two on, Wieters attempted to check his swing on a 0-2 changeup from Blue Jays pitcher Marco Estrada. Play reviewed and affirmed as correct by the UEFL Appeals Board (check swing). At the time of the ejection, the Blue Jays were leading, 2-1. The Orioles ultimately won the contest, 3-2.

This is Dan Bellino (2)'s first ejection of the 2016 MLB regular season.
Dan Bellino now has 6 points in the UEFL Standings (2 Previous + 2 MLB + 2 Correct Call = 6).
Crew Chief Tom Hallion now has 6 points in Crew Division (5 Previous + 1 Correct Call = 6).

This is the seventh ejection of the 2016 MLB regular season.
This is the 4th player ejection of 2016. Prior to ejection, Wieters was 1-3 (SO) in the contest.
This is the Orioles' 1st ejection of 2016, 1st in the AL East (BAL 1; BOS, NYY, TB, TOR 0).
This is Matt Wieter's first ejection since May 29, 2012 (Doug Eddings; QOC = Y [Balls/Strikes]).
This is Dan Bellino's first ejection since September 23, 2015 (Glen Perkins; QOC = Y [Balls/Strikes]).
