MLB Ejection 128: David Rackley (2; Bryan Price)

HP Umpire David Rackley ejected Reds Manager Bryan Price for arguing a strike three swinging (check swing) call in the top of the 6th inning of the Reds-Brewers. With one out and one on, Reds batter Devin Mesoraco attempted to check his swing on a 1-2 slider from Brewers pitcher Wily Peralta. Replays indicate Mesoraco attempted to strike the pitch, the call was correct, pursuant to the UEFL Appeals Board's adoption of a highly-deferential abuse of discretion standard, as opined by JD, in re: R-145 Barksdale 1. At the time of the ejection, the Brewers were leading, 5-1. The Brewers ultimately won the contest, 5-2.

This is David Rackley (86)'s second ejection of the 2014 MLB Regular Season.
David Rackley now has 4 points in the UEFL Standings (0 Previous + 2 MLB + 2 Correct Call = 4).
