MLB Ejection 064 - Brennan Miller (2; Craig Counsell)

HP Umpire Brennan Miller ejected Cubs manager Craig Counsell (foul ball call confirmed via Replay Review; QOCY) in the bottom of the 9th inning of the #Reds-#Cubs game. With none out and two on, Cubs batter Nick Madrigal attempted to take a 1-1 fastball from Reds pitcher Alexis Díaz for a called foul ball, as HP Umpire Miller ruled the pitched ball first struck Madrigal's bat. Before challenging the call, Counsell began arguing Miller's call and was ejected for continuing to argue during the Replay Review, which confirmed Miller's foul ball call (knob of bat), the call was correct. At the time of the ejection, the Reds were leading, 5-3. The Reds ultimately won the contest, 5-4.

This is Brennan Miller (55)'s 2nd ejection of 2024.
