MLB Ejection 093 - Mike Everitt (2; Mike Matheny)

HP Umpire Mike Everitt ejected Cardinals Manager Mike Matheny for arguing a Replay Review decision that overturned 1B Umpire Jordan Baker's out call in the top of the 6th inning of the Royals-Cardinals game. With one out and two on, Royals batter Salvador Perez hit a 0-0 sinker from Cardinals pitcher Mike Leake on the ground to shortstop Greg Garcia, who threw to second baseman Matt Carpenter to first baseman Matt Adams as Perez arrived at first base, Royals baserunner R1 Eric Hosmer out at second. Upon Replay Review as the result of a challenge by Royals Manager Ned Yost, the out call at first base was overturned and Perez was awarded first base as replays indicate Perez touched first base prior to Adams catching the throw, the call was correct.* At the time of the ejection, the Royals were leading, 3-1. The Royals ultimately won the contest, 4-2.

This is Mike Everitt (57)'s second ejection of the 2016 MLB regular season.
Mike Everitt now has 6 points in the UEFL Standings (2 Previous + 2 MLB + 2 Correct = 6).
Crew Chief Mike Everitt now has 4 points in Crew Division (3 Previous + 1 Correct Call = 4).
*Replay Review Regulation II.D.5 states, in part, "The judgment of the Crew Chief regarding the timeliness of a Manager's Challenge shall be final and binding on both Clubs, and shall not be reviewable by Replay Review or otherwise."
