MLB Ejections 034-35 - Miller & Eddings (1,1; PHI-SEA)

3B Umpire Bill Miller ejected Phillies manager Joe Girardi (untimely Replay Review request/time expired) in the bottom of the 2nd inning and HP Umpire Doug Eddings ejected Mariners catcher Luis Torrens (check swing strike three call) of the #Phillies-#Mariners game. In the 2nd, with one out and one on (R2), Mariners batter Adam Frazier hit a ground ball to second baseman Jean Segura, who threw to first baseman Rhys Hoskins as Frazier arrived at first base, ruled safe by 1B Umpire Brian Knight. Replays indicate first baseman Hoskins appeared to possess the ball upon tagging first base prior to Frazier's arrival, but dropped the ball as his glove collided with Frazier's leg; the 20-second Replay Review decision clock expired prior to Girardi's request to challenge the play, the call was irrecusable. At the time of the ejection, the Mariners were leading, 3-0. In the 8th, with none out and none on, Mariners batter Torrens attempted to check his swing on a 3-2 slider from Phillies pitcher Andrew Bellatti, ruled a swinging strike on appeal by 1B Umpire Brian Knight. Play was reviewed and adjudicated by the UEFL Appeals Board (8-0), the call was correct. At the time of the ejection, the Mariners were leading, 5-3. The Mariners ultimately won the contest, 5-4.

HP Umpire Tim Timmons ejected Phillies manager Joe Girardi (unsportsmanlike/challenging Nationals pitcher Max Scherzer to a fight after a foreign substance dispute) in the bottom of the 5th inning of the #Nationals-#Phillies game. In the 4th, with none out and one on (R1), Phillies batter Alec Bohm struck out swinging. Following the at-bat, Girardi requested the umpires inspect Scherzer for an illegal substance. Upon crew consultation, the umpires checked Scherzer and did not appear to find an illegal substance; at the time of inspection, Scherzer had already been checked twice before pursuant to MLB's June 2021 between-inning inspection protocol. The game proceeded without incident until the bottom of the 5th inning, when, with two out and none on, Phillies batter JP Realmuto struck out swinging. As Scherzer walked off the mound toward Washington's dugout, he looked at Philadelphia's dugout but did not say anything. In response, Girardi exited Philadelphia's dugout and yelled in the direction of the Nationals dugout, resulting in an ejection for unsportsmanlike conduct, the call was irrecusable. At the time of the ejection, the Nationals were leading, 3-1. The Nationals ultimately won the contest, 3-2.

MLB Ejection 153 - Mike Everitt (3; Joe Girardi)

2B Umpire Mike Everitt ejected Yankees Manager Joe Girardi (retired runner's interference no-call; upheld Replay Review bona fide slide call; QOCN) in the top of the 3rd inning of the Mariners-Yankees game. With one out and one on (R1), Mariners batter Robinson Cano hit a ground ball to Yankees first baseman Chase Headley, who threw to shortstop Didi Gregorius as Mariners baserunner R1 Jean Segura slid toward second base. Upon Replay Review as the result of a Manager's Challenge by Yankees Manager Girardi, Everitt's slide rule interference no-call was affirmed as replays indicate Segura did not meet the eligibility criteria for Rule 6.01(j), as he never made it to second base nor to F6 Gregorius; however, replays indicate Segura willfully hindered Gregorius' following play on the batter-runner (for instance, due to Segura's raised arm) in contravention of another provision of interference Rule 6.01, the call was incorrect.*^ Segura's slide, though not a violation of the bona fide slide rule, did hinder and/or impede Gregorius' ensuing throw to first base. Play reviewed and affirmed by the UEFL Appeals Board (6-3), the call was incorrect. At the time of the ejection, the Yankees were leading, 6-1. The Yankees ultimately won the contest, 10-1.

This is Mike Everitt (57)'s third ejection of the 2017 MLB regular season.
Mike Everitt now has 3 points in the UEFL Standings (5 Prev + 2 MLB - 4 Incorrect Call = 3).
Crew Chief Mike Everitt now has 9 points in Crew Division (9 Previous + 0 Incorrect Call = 9).
*Rule 6.01(j)'s criteria for a force play bona fide slide applies only if the runner "initiates (or attempts to make) contact with the fielder for the purpose of breaking up a double play, he should be called for interference under this Rule 6.01." Because R1 Segura, due to his early slide, did not initiate nor attempt to make contact with F6 Gregorius, Rule 6.01(j) cannot apply.
*However, although Segura was not guilty of violating the slide interference rule, as a runner just put out, he improperly hindered or impeded Gregorius' following play, as in Rule 6.01(a)(5): "Any batter or runner who has just been put out, or any runner who has just scored, hinders or impedes any following play being made on a runner. Such runner shall be declared out for the interference of his teammate."
^QOC is Incorrect pursuant to UEFL Rule 6-2-b-6-a, which states, "Quality of Correctness is governed by the (in)correctness of the call made, not by the quality of reasoning given for such a call."
