Close Call Sports objectively tracks and analyzes close and controversial calls in sport, with great regard for the rules and spirit of the game. Developed from The Left Field Corner's MLB Umpire Ejection Fantasy League (UEFL), baseball's number one source for umpire ejections, video instant replay reviews and their corresponding calls, with great regard for the rules and spirit of the game.
HP Umpire Joe West ejected Dodgers LF Joc Pederson (strike one and two calls; QOCY) in the top of the 9th inning of the Dodgers-Diamondbacks game. With none out and two on (R2, R3), Pederson took 1-0 and 1-1 fastballs from Diamondbacks pitcher Yoshihisa Hirano before striking out swinging on a subsequent pitch. Replays indicate the 1-0 pitch was located over the outer half of home plate and above the hollow of the knee (px -.621, pz 1.649 [sz_bot 1.565]) and the 1-1 pitch was located over inner half of home plate and thigh high (px .203, pz 2.088), the call was correct. At the time of the ejection, the Dodgers were leading, 6-3. The Dodgers ultimately won the contest, 7-4.
This is Joe West (22)'s fifth ejection of 2018.
