HP Umpire Marty Foster ejected Red Sox pitcher Kyle Weiland and Red Sox Manager Terry Francona for throwing at Orioles batter Vladimir Guerrero in the top of the 5th inning and Orioles pitcher Michael Gonzalez and Orioles Manager Buck Showalter for throwing at Red Sox batter David Oritz in the bottom of the 6th inning of the Orioles-Red Sox game. Prior to the Weiland and Francona ejections, with none out and one on, Guerrero took a 1-1 fastball for a hit by pitch. Replays indicate Guerrero got hit by the pitch in the hands, the call was correct.* Prior to the Gonzalez and Showalter ejections, with two out and none on, Ortiz took an 0-1 fastball for a ball. Replays indicate the pitch was behind Ortiz's back, the call was correct.* At the time of all four ejections, the Red Sox were leading, 7-6. The Red Sox ultimately won the contest, 8-6.
These are Marty Foster (60)'s first, second, third, and fourth ejections of 2011.
