HP Umpire Lance Barrett ejected Mariners CF Jarred Kelenic and manager Scott Servais (strike three call; QOCY) in the top of the 8th inning of the #Mariners-#Yankees game. With one out and two on (R2, R3), Mariners batter Kelenic took a 3-2 slider from Yankees pitcher Lucas Luetge for a called third strike.
