Close Call Sports objectively tracks and analyzes close and controversial calls in sport, with great regard for the rules and spirit of the game. Developed from The Left Field Corner's MLB Umpire Ejection Fantasy League (UEFL), baseball's number one source for umpire ejections, video instant replay reviews and their corresponding calls, with great regard for the rules and spirit of the game.
HP Umpire DJ Reyburn ejected Nationals Hitting Coach Rick Schu for arguing a strike three call in the bottom of the 5th inning of the Mets-Nationals game. With none out and none on, Nationals batter Chris Heisey took a 0-2 sinker from Mets pitcher Steven Matz for a called third strike. Replays indicate the pitch was located over the outer edge of home plate and below the midpoint (px .685, pz 3.453 [sz_top 3.620]) and that all other pitches during the at bat had been properly officiated, the call was correct. At the time of the ejection the Mets were leading, 1-0. The Mets ultimately won the contest, 2-0.
This is DJ Reyburn (70)'s first ejection of the 2016 MLB regular season.
DJ Reyburn now has 12 points in the UEFL Standings (8 Previous + 2 MLB + 2 Correct Call = 12).
Crew Chief John Hirschbeck now has 11 points in Crew Division (10 Previous + 1 Correct Call = 11).
This is the 60th ejection report of the 2016 regular season.
This is Washington's 2nd ejection of 2016, T-2nd in the NL East (MIA 3; NYM, WAS 2; ATL 1; PHI 0).
This is Rick Schu's first career MLB ejection.
This is DJ Reyburn's first ejection since August 2, 2015 (Clint Hurdle; QOC = U [Argued Ejection]).
