Ejections 060, 061: D.J. Reyburn (1, 2)

HP Umpire D.J. Reyburn ejected Dodgers Manager Don Mattingly and Bench Coach Trey Hillman for arguing a strike call in the top of the 6th inning of the Dodgers-Phillies game. With two out and none on, Dodgers batter Jerry Hairston, Jr. took a 3-2 slider from Phillies pitcher Joe Savery for a called third strike. Replays indicate the strike three pitch was located within the bounds of the strike zone (norm_ht of 0.986), but the strike two pitch was located thigh high and inside (px of -1.073) the call was incorrect. At the time of the ejection, the contest was tied, 3-3. The Dodgers ultimately won the contest, 4-3.

These are D.J. Reyburn (70)'s first and second ejections of 2012.
D.J. Reyburn now has -4 points in the UEFL (0 Previous + 2*[3 AAA + -1 Penalty + -4 Incorrect Call] = -4).
