MLB Ejections 073 - Brian O'Nora (2; Aaron Boone)

[Lindsay]

2B Umpire Brian O'Nora ejected Yankees manager Aaron Boone (overturned Replay Review fair/foul and runner placement call by 1B Umpire Nestor Ceja; QOCY) in the bottom of the 1st inning of the #Yankees-#Reds game. With two out and one on (R1), Reds batter Spencer Steer hit a 2-2 slider from Yankees pitcher Luis Severino on a fly ball to right fielder Jake Bauers, ruled foul by Ceja. Upon Replay Review as the result of a challenge by Reds manager David Bell, Ceja's call was overturned to a fair ball and baserunner R1 Jonathan India was placed at home, scoring a run. Replays indicate that with two outs, India was running on the pitch and that Yankees outfielder Bauers dropped the fly ball in fair territory such that India would likely have scored had the correct fair ball call been made as the initial call. At the time of the ejection, the game was tied, 0-0. The Yankees ultimately won the contest, 4-1.
