MLB Ejection 193-4 - Alex MacKay (2-3; PHI x2)

HP Umpire Alex MacKay ejected Phillies 3B Alec Bohm (strike three call; QOCN) in the bottom of the 7th and manager Rob Thomson (strike three call to Bryce Harper; QOCY) in the bottom of the 8th inning of the #Twins-#Phillies game. In the 7th, with two out and the bases loaded, Phillies batter Bohm took a 3-2 fastball from Twins pitcher Caleb Thielbar for a called third strike. Replays indicate the pitch was located off the inner edge of home plate and knee-high (px -0.97, pz 2.14), the call was incorrect. At the time of Bohm's ejection, the Twins were leading, 2-0. In the 8th, with none out and none on, Phillies batter Harper took a 2-2 sweeper from Twins pitcher Thielbar for a called third strike. Replays indicate the pitch was located over the outer edge of home plate and at the hollow of the knee (px -0.76, pz 1.53 [sz_bot 1.65 / RAD 1.53]), the call was correct. At the time of Thomson's ejection, the Twins were leading, 2-0. The Twins ultimately won the contest, 3-0.
