[Lindsay]

HP Umpire Jordan Baker ejected Mariners bench player Julio Rodríguez (strike three call to Mitch Garver; QOCY) in the bottom of the 9th inning of the #BlueJays-#Mariners game. With none out and none on, Mariners batter Garver took a 3-2 slider from Blue Jays pitcher Chad Green. Replays indicate the pitch was located over the outer edge of home plate and at the midpoint (px 0.58, pz 1.56 [sz_bot 1.58 / RAD 1.46]), the call was correct.* At the time of the ejection, the game was tied, 4-4. The Blue Jays ultimately won the contest, 5-4, in 10 innings.

This is Jordan Baker (71)'s 1st ejection of 2024.
