MLB Ejection 230 - Ben May (3; Bruce Bochy)

[Lindsay]

HP Umpire Ben May ejected Rangers manager Bruce Bochy (ball four call to Luis Urias; QOCY) in the top of the 7th inning of the #RedSox-#Rangers game. With one out and one on, Red Sox batter Urias took a 3-2 fastball from Rangers pitcher Andrew Heaney for a called fourth ball. Replays indicate the pitch was located over the inner edge of home plate and above the midpoint (px -0.71, pz 3.18 [sz_top 3.05 / RAD 3.17 / MOE 3.09]), the call was correct. At the time of the ejection, the Rangers were leading, 4-3. The Rangers ultimately won the contest, 6-4.

This is Ben May (97)'s 3rd ejection of 2023.

*This pitch was located 1.08 vertical inches from being deemed an incorrect call.
