MLB Ejection 052 - Adrian Johnson (1; Mike Matheny)

1B Umpire Adrian Johnson ejected Royals manager Mike Matheny (check swing strike two call) in the bottom of the 6th inning of the #Tigers-#Royals game. With one out and one on (R1), Royals batter Whit Merrifield attempted to check his swing on a 0-1 sinker from Tigers pitcher Casey Mize while being hit by the pitch, ruled a swing on appeal by 1B Umpire Johnson and resulting in a dead ball strike. Play was reviewed and adjudicated by the UEFL Appeals Board (1-7), the call was incorrect. At the time of the ejection, the Tigers were leading, 2-0. The Royals ultimately won the contest, 3-2.

This is Adrian Johnson (80)'s 1st ejection of 2021.
