[Lindsay]

HP Umpire Andy Fletcher ejected Marlins 1B Yuli Gurriel (strike three call; QOCY) in the bottom of the 9th inning of the #Rockies-#Marlins game. With none out and none on, Gurriel took a 1-2 sinker from Rockies pitcher Justin Lawrence for a called third strike. Replays indicate the pitch was located over the outer edge of home plate and above the hollow of the knee (px 0.67, pz 1.83 [sz_bot 1.65 / RAD 1.53]), the call was correct.* At the time of the ejection, the game was tied, 2-2. The Marlins ultimately won the contest, 3-2.

This is Andy Fletcher (49)'s 2nd ejection of 2023.

*This pitch was located 2.89 horizontal and 4.60 vertical inches from being deemed incorrect.

I think I asked that not too long ago and somebody actually did put together some statistics ... I just don't recall what thread that was in or who did it.  (My apologies for forgetting your hard word!)
