MLB Ejection 007 - Manny Gonzalez (1; Matt Shoemaker)

HP Umpire Manny Gonzalez ejected Twins pitcher Matt Shoemaker (ball two call; QOCY) in the top of the 6th inning of the #Mariners-#Twins game. With none out and none on, Mariners batter Jose Marmolejos took a 1-2 pitch from Twins pitcher Shoemaker for a called second ball. Replays indicate the pitch was located over the outer half of home plate and above the midpoint (px -0.34, pz 3.56 [sz_top 3.47 / RAD 3.59 / MOE 3.51]) and that all other callable pitches during the half-inning immediately preceding ejection were properly officiated, the call was correct.* At the time of Shoemaker's ejection three runs after the consequential pitch, the Twins were leading, 6-4. The Mariners ultimately won the contest, 8-6.
