MLB Ejection 169 - James Hoye (5; Edwin Uceta)

[Lindsay]

2B Umpire James Hoye ejected Rays pitcher Edwin Uceta (throwing at Nick Castellanos) in the bottom of the 8th inning of the #Rays-#Phillies game. With two out and one on (R2), Phillies batter Castellanos took a 0-0 sinker from Rays pitcher Uceta for a hit-by-pitch. Replays indicate the pitch was located inside and struck Castellanos on the backside; warnings had not previously been issued, the call was irrecusable. At the time of the ejection, the Phillies were leading, 9-4. The Phillies ultimately won the contest, 9-4.
