[Lindsay]

HP Umpire Jordan Baker ejected Dodgers 3B Max Muncy and manager Dave Roberts (strike three call; QOCY) in the top of the 8th inning of the #Dodgers-#RedSox game. With two out and the bases loaded, Muncy took a 0-2 splitter from Red Sox pitcher Chris Martin for a called third strike. Replays indicate the pitch was located over the inner half of home plate and at the hollow of the knee (px 0.54, pz 1.36 [sz_bot 1.48 / RAD 1.36 / MOE 1.28]), the call was correct.* At the time of the ejections, the Red Sox were leading, 7-5. The Red Sox ultimately won the contest, 8-5.

These are Jordan Baker (71)'s 2nd and 3rd ejections of 2023.

*This pitch was located 1.00 vertical inches from being deemed incorrect.
