MLB Ejection 210 - Manny Gonzalez (3; Mike Montgomery)

HP Umpire Manny Gonzalez ejected Royals pitcher Mike Montgomery (ball two/three calls; QOCY) in the bottom of the 5th inning of the #Royals-#Twins game.

Replays indicate the 1-1 pitch was located over the inner half of home plate and below the hollow of the knee (px 0.26, pz 1.49 [sz_bot 1.59]) and the 2-1 pitch was located over the heart of home plate and below the hollow of the knee (px -0.02, pz 1.44 [sz_bot 1.59]), the call was correct. At the time of the ejection, the game was tied, 5-5. The Twins ultimately won the contest, 8-5.
