[Lindsay]

3B Umpire Hunter Wendelstedt ejected Rockies 2B Brendan Rodgers (check swing strike three call) in the bottom of the 5th inning of the #Diamondbacks-#Rockies game. With none out and none on, Rockies batter Rodgers attempted to check his swing on a 3-2 fastball from Diamondbacks pitcher Kevin Ginkel, ruled a ball by HP Umpire Adam Hamari and called a swinging strike on appeal by 1B Umpire Wendelstedt. This play is under review by the UEFL Appeals Board, the call was *PENDING*. At the time of the ejection, the Diamondbacks were leading, 10-8. 

This is Hunter Wendelstedt (21)'s 1st ejection of 2022.

This is the 155th ejection report of the 2022 MLB regular season.

This is the 50th player ejection of 2022. Prior to ejection, Rodgers was 0-3 (2 SO) in the contest.

Notice the right arm open hand gesture by Hamari to ask if he went. Don't do that in your games gentlemen. It works in MLB because the crews know each other's mannerisms, except when they don't which happened once in the last year or two. PU signaled a strike and U1 signaled no.
