MLB Ejection 145 - Phil Cuzzi (2; William Contreras)

HP Umpire Phil Cuzzi ejected Brewers DH William Contreras (strike two call; QOCY) in the bottom of the 8th inning of the #Reds-#Brewers game. With one out and one on, Brewers batter Contreras took a 0-1 fastball from Reds pitcher Emilio Pagán for a called second strike before grounding into a double play. Replays indicate the pitch was located over the outer half of home plate and at the hollow of the knee (px 0.35, pz 1.76 [sz_bot 1.78 / RAD 1.66]), the call was correct.* At the time of the ejection, the Reds were leading, 4-3. The Reds ultimately won the contest, 4-3.

This is Phil Cuzzi (10)'s 2nd ejection of 2024. 
*This pitch was located 2.16 vertical inches from being deemed incorrect.
