MLB Ejection 068 - James Hoye (1; Joakim Soria)

HP Umpire James Hoye ejected Athletics pitcher Joakim Soria (ball two call; QOCY) in the top of the 9th inning of the Angels-A's game. With two out and two on (R1, R2), Angels batter Shohei Ohtani took a 1-2 curveball from Soria for a called second ball. Replays indicate the pitch was located off the outer half of home plate and thigh-high (px -0.766, pz 2.100) and preceded a double such that the ball call realistically resulted in a different outcome of the at-bat pursuant to UEFL Rule 6-5-c, the call was correct.* At the time of the ejection, the Angels were leading, 6-4. The Angels ultimately won the contest, 6-4.

This is James Hoye (92)'s first ejection of 2019.
James Hoye now has 4 points in the UEFL Standings (0 Prev + 2 MLB + 2 Correct Call = 4).
Crew Chief Brian O'Nora now has 1 point in Crew Division (0 Previous + 1 Correct Call = 1).
*UEFL Rule 6-2-b-1 (Kulpa Rule): |0| < STRIKE < |.748| < BORDERLINE < |.914| < BALL.
This pitch was located 0.216 horizontal inches from being deemed an incorrect call.

This is the 68th ejection report of the 2019 MLB regular season.

This is Oakland's 2nd ejection of 2019, T-1st in the AL West (LAA, HOU, OAK 2; SEA 1; TEX 0).
This is Joakim Soria's first career MLB ejection.
