Ejection 167: Marvin Hudson (2)

1B Umpire Marvin Hudson ejected Nationals Manager Davey Johnson for arguing a safe call in the bottom of the 6th inning of the Nationals-Braves game. With none out and none on, Braves batter Martin Prado hit a 3-2 fastball from Nationals pitcher Edwin Jackson, who fielded and threw to first baseman Adam LaRoche. Replays indicate LaRoche caught the throw and legally tagged first base with his left foot in contact with the bag prior to Prado's arrival, the call was incorrect. At the time of the ejection, the Nationals were leading, 4-2. The Braves ultimately won the contest, 5-4.

This is Marvin Hudson (51)'s second ejection of 2012.
Marvin Hudson now has 2 points in the UEFL (4 Previous + 2 MLB + -4 Incorrect Call = 2).
Crew Chief Fieldin Culbreth now has 0 points in the UEFL's Crew Division (0 Previous + 0 Incorrect = 0).
