Ejections: Andy Fletcher (3, 4)

HP Umpire Andy Fletcher ejected Rangers shortstop Elvis Andrus and Manager Ron Washington for arguing a ball call in the top of the 6th inning of the Mets-Rangers game. With none out and one on, Mets batter Daniel Murphy took a 2-2 fastball from Rangers pitcher Derek Holland for a called third ball.
