MLB Ejection 129 - Ryan Blakney (1; Franmil Reyes)

HP Umpire Ryan Blakney ejected Indians RF Franmil Reyes (strike three call; QOCY) in the top of the 3rd inning of the #Indians-#Tigers game. With two out and two on (R1, R3), Reyes took a 1-2 sinker from Tigers pitcher Tyler Alexander for a called third strike. Replays indicate the pitch was located over the outer edge of home plate and at the hollow of the knee (px 0.75, pz 1.79 [sz_bot 1.68 / RAD 1.56]) and that all other pitches during the at-bat were properly officiated, the call was correct.* At the time of the ejection, the Indians were leading, 2-0.
