Spring Ejection S-9 - Mike Cascioppo (Scioscia)

HP Umpire Mike Cascioppo ejected Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim Manager Mike Scioscia (strike one call) in the bottom of the 3rd inning of the Diamondbacks-Angels game. With two out and none on, Angels batter Cameron Maybin took a 1-0 pitch from Diamondbacks pitcher Taijuan Walker for a called first strike. Replays indicate the pitch was located around the inner edge of home plate and near the hollow of the knee (pitch f/x unavailable), the call was irrecusable. At the time of the ejection, the Angels were leading, 4-1. The Angels ultimately won the contest, 7-4.
