MLB Ejections 162-163 - May, Blaser (2, 4; MIN x2)

HP Umpire Ben May ejected Twins Manager Paul Molitor and 1B Umpire Cory Blaser ejected Twins 3B Coach Gene Glynn (check swing/bunt ball two call) in the top of the 5th inning of the Twins-Royals game. With one out and one on (R3), Royals batter Cam Gallagher aborted his attempt to bunt a 1-0 slider from Twins pitcher Chase De Jong as catcher Willians Astudillo threw to third base to play on Royals baserunner R3 Alcides Escobar, who ran toward home as Twins third baseman Gregorio Petit's return throw hit Escobar in the lower back, ruled no interference by May following the check swing (no swing) call by 1B Umpire Blaser. Play was reviewed and adjudicated by the UEFL Appeals Board (7-0-2), the call was correct. At the time of the ejections, the Royals were leading, 4-1. The Royals ultimately won the contest, 10-3.

This is Ben May (97)'s second ejection of 2018.
