2B Umpire Adrian Johnson ejected Brewers bench coach Pat Murphy (Unsportmsanlike-NEC) during the pre-game plate meeting and HP Umpire Jeremy Riggs ejected Brewers 1B Rowdy Tellez (balls/strikes; QOCY) in the top of the 6th inning of the #Brewers-#Twins game. Prior to the game, Murphy began arguing with 3B Umpire Brian Gorman, resulting in an ejection from Johnson for unsportsmanlike conduct.

In the 6th, Brewers batter Rowdy Tellez struck out swinging after taking a 2-0 slider from Twins pitcher Caleb Thielbar for a called first strike.
