HP Umpire Chris Conroy ejected Dodgers center fielder Matt Kemp for arguing a strike call in the bottom of the 5th inning of the Angels-Dodgers game. With none out and none on, Kemp took a 1-2 fastball from Angels pitcher Tyler Chatwood for a called third strike. Replays indicate the pitch was located thigh high and over the heart of home plate, the call was correct. Replays indicate 1B Umpire Tom Hallion's swing call on the 1-1 pitch was also correct. At the time of the ejection, the Angels were leading, 2-0. The Angels ultimately won the contest, 6-1.
