MLB Ejection 185 - Jacob Metz (1; Matt Carpenter)

HP Umpire Jacob Metz ejected Cardinals DH Matt Carpenter (strike three call; QOCY) in the top of the 9th inning of the #Cardinals-#Giants game. With two out and one on, Cardinals batter Carpenter took a 0-2 fastball from Giants pitcher Austin Warren for a called third strike.
