Spring Ejection S-3 - Nick Mahrley (Matt Adams)

HP Umpire Nick Mahrley ejected Cardinals 1B Matt Adams for arguing a strike three call in the bottom of the 5th inning of the Mets-Cardinals game. With none out and none on, Adams took a 1-2 pitch from Mets pitcher Robert Gsellman for a called third strike. Replays indicate the pitch was located around the inner edge of home plate and belt high, the call was irrecusable. At the time of the ejection, the Mets were leading, 3-1. The Mets ultimately won the contest, 5-4.
