MLB Ejection 155: Lance Barrett (2; Jeff Banister)

HP Umpire Lance Barrett ejected Rangers Manager Jeff Banister for arguing a strike one call in the top of the 8th inning of the Rangers-Mariners game. With one out and one on, Rangers batter Mitch Moreland took a 0-0 fastball from Mariners pitcher Fernando Rodney for a called first strike. Replays indicate the pitch was located over the heart of home plate and below the hollow of the knee (px .008, pz 1.425 [sz_bot 1.73]), the call was incorrect. At the time of the ejection, the Mariners were leading, 4-2. The Mariners ultimately won the contest, 4-2.
