MLB Ejections 123-124 - Nauert, Fairchild (2, 2; MIA-ATL)

3B Umpire Paul Nauert ejected Braves Manager Brian Snitker (fighting) and HP Umpire Chad Fairchild ejected Marlins pitcher Jose Ureña (throwing at Braves batter Ronald Acuña resulting in injury; QOCU) in the bottom of the 1st inning of the Marlins-Braves game. With none out and none on, Ureña's first pitch of the ballgame stuck Acuña for a hit-by-pitch. Replays indicate the pitch was located inside and made contact with Acuña on his left arm and elbow, resulting in a bench-clearing incident during which Snitker was ejected for fighting and after which Ureña was ejected for intentionally throwing at a batter, the call was irrecusable. At the time both ejections, the Marlins were leading, 1-0. The Braves ultimately won the contest, 5-2.
