MLB Ejection 090 - Bill Miller (2; Andy Green)
1B Umpire Bill Miller ejected Padres Manager Andy Green for arguing an interference no-call (safe) by HP Umpire Todd Tichenor in the top of the 5th inning of the Orioles-Padres game. With two out and the bases loaded, Orioles batter Chris Davis hit a 1-0 changeup from Padres pitcher Christian Friedrich on the ground to Friedrich, who attempted to throw to first baseman Wil Myers for the inning's third out. Replays indicate Friedrich's throw which could have reasonably retired the runner passed Davis untouched as Davis' left foot was in contact with the ground completely inside of (to the left of) the runner's lane line. Play was reviewed and adjudicated by the UEFL Appeals Board, the call was incorrect. At the time of the ejection, the Orioles were leading, 6-0.
This is Bill Miller (26)'s third ejection of the 2016 MLB regular season.
