MLB Ejection 129 - Rob Drake (2; Kevin Long)

HP Umpire Rob Drake ejected Phillies hitting coach Kevin Long (strike three call to Trea Turner; QOCN) in the bottom of the 3rd inning of the #Guardians-#Phillies game. With one out and one on, Turner took a 2-2 sinker from Guardians pitcher Ben Lively for a called third strike. Replays indicate the pitch was located off the outer edge of home plate and at the hollow of the knee (px 0.94, pz 1.92), the call was incorrect.* At the time of the ejection, the Guardians were leading, 1-0. The Guardians ultimately won the contest, 3-1.
