MLB Ejection 199: Alfonso Marquez (3; Pat Murphy)

HP Umpire Alfonso Marquez ejected Padres Interim Manager Pat Murphy for arguing a strike two call in the top of the 8th inning of the Padres-Diamondbacks game. With two out and two on, Padres batter Brett Wallace took a 3-1 sinker from Diamondbacks pitcher Brad Ziegler for a called second strike. Replays indicate the pitch was located over the outer edge of home plate and below the hollow of the knee (px -.729, pz 1.479 [sz_bot 1.62 / MOE 1.54]), the call was incorrect. At the time of the ejection, the Diamondbacks were leading, 6-4. The Diamondbacks ultimately won the contest, 6-4.
