MLB Ejection 005 - Jeff Nelson (1; Matt Kemp)

HP Umpire Jeff Nelson ejected Reds LF Matt Kemp (strike three call; QOCY) in the bottom of the 5th inning of the Brewers-Reds game. With two out and one on (R3), Kemp took a 2-2 slider from Brewers pitcher Zach Davies for a called third strike. Replays indicate the pitch was located over the outer half of home plate and at the hollow of the knee (px 0.48, pz 1.53 [sz_bot 1.56 / RAD 1.437, 1.16 inches of overlap]), the call was correct. At the time of the ejection, the Brewers were leading, 3-2. The Brewers ultimately won the contest, 4-3.

This is Jeff Nelson (45)'s first ejection of 2019.
Jeff Nelson now has 4 points in the UEFL Standings (0 Prev + 2 MLB + 2 Correct Call = 2).
Crew Chief Jeff Nelson now has 2 points in Crew Division (1 Previous + 1 Correct Call = 2).

This is the fifth ejection of the 2019 MLB regular season.
This is the fifth player ejection of 2019. Prior to ejection, Kemp was 0-3 (2 SO) in the contest.
This is Cincinnati's 1st ejection of 2019, T-1st in the NL Central (CIN, MIL, STL 1; CHC, PIT 0).
