MLB Ejection 050 - Alan Porter (1; Bob Melvin)

HP Umpire Alan Porter ejected Athletics manager Bob Melvin (multiple calls; all QOCY) at the conclusion of the 5th inning of the #Astros-#Athletics game. With none out and none on in the bottom of the 5th inning, A's batter Sean Murphy flied out to right, Tony Kemp walked, Elvis Andrus lined out, Mark Canha singled, and Seth Brown struck out swinging. Replays indicate all callable pitches during the half-inning preceding ejection were properly officiated, Astros pitcher Luis Garcia did not balk, and no calls could be conclusively determined to be incorrect, the call was irrecusable. At the time of the ejection, the Astros were leading, 5-2. The Astros ultimately won the contest, 6-3.

This is Alan Porter (64)'s 1st ejection of 2021.
Alan Porter now has 6 points in the UEFL Standings (2 Prev + 2 MLB + 2 Correct Call = 6).
Crew Chief Chris Guccione now has 2 points in Crew Division (1 Previous + 1 Correct Call = 2).
