[Lindsay]

HP Umpire Doug Eddings ejected Nationals manager Dave Martinez (ball one call to Carson Kelly after strike three to CJ Abrams; QOCY) in the top of the 5th inning of the #Diamondbacks-#Nationals game. With two out and two on in the bottom of the 4th, Nats batter Abrams took a 1-2 slider from D-Backs pitcher Tommy Henry for a called third strike. In the top of the 5th, D-Backs batter Kelly took a 0-0 sinker from Nats pitcher Jake Irvin for a called first strike. Replays indicate the pitch was located over the outer half of home plate and below the midpoint (px 0.51, pz 1.27 [sz_bot 1.61 / RAD 1.49), the call was correct.* At the time of the ejection, the Diamondbacks were leading, 2-1. The Diamondbacks ultimately won the contest, 5-3.
