MLB Ejection 121 - Todd Tichenor (1; Billy Hamilton)

HP Umpire Todd Tichenor ejected Reds CF Billy Hamilton (strike three call; QOCY) in the top of the 5th inning of the Reds-Pirates game. With two out and none on, Hamilton took a 0-2 slider from Pirates pitcher Chad Kuhl for a called third strike. Replays indicate the pitch was located over the outer edge of home plate and thigh-high (px -.900, pz 1.875 [sz_bot 1.535]), the call was correct. At the time of the ejection, the Pirates were leading, 4-0. The Pirates ultimately won the contest, 6-0.

This is Todd Tichenor (13)'s first ejection of the 2017 MLB regular season.
Todd Tichenor now has 3 points in the UEFL Standings (-1 Prev + 2 MLB + 2 Correct Call = 3).
Crew Chief Bill Miller now has 11 points in Crew Division (10 Previous + 1 Correct Call = 11).
