MLB Ejection 062 - Joe West (1; Andy Green)
HP Umpire Joe West ejected Padres Manager Andy Green (foul ball call; QOCY) in the bottom of the 4th inning of the Padres-Braves game. With two out and none on, Braves batter Ozzie Albies attempted to strike a 1-2 slider from Padres pitcher Clayton Richard for a called foul ball. Replays indicate Albies' bat made contact with the baseball, which in turn bounced into the dirt before being fumbled by Padres catcher Raffy Lopez, the call was correct. Ruling was reviewed and affirmed by the UEFL Appeals Board (7-0-2), the call was correct. At the time of the ejection, the game was tied, 2-2. The Padres ultimately won the contest, 9-3.
This is Joe West (22)'s first ejection of 2018.
Joe West now has 4 points in the UEFL Standings (0 Prev + 2 MLB + 2 Correct Call = 4).
Crew Chief Joe West now has -3 points in Crew Division (-4 Previous + 1 Correct Call = -3).
