Ejection 035: Laz Diaz (1)
HP Umpire Laz Diaz ejected Oakland A's Manager Bob Melvin for arguing a no catch call in
the bottom of the 6th inning of the A's-Rangers game.
With one out and two on, Rangers batter Elvis Andrus hit a sacrifice bunt to A's pitcher Brandon McCarthy. Rangers R3 Craig Gentry scored, R1 Ian Kinsler to second, and Andrus to first. Replays indicate that Andrus popped up his bunt to McCarthy, who cleanly caught the ball in his glove on the fly, the call was incorrect.* At
the time of the
ejection, the Rangers were leading, 4-3. The A's ultimately won the contest, 5-4, in 10 innings.
