What was the ejection for?

 

Also, Yelich sure does K a lot.

I tuned in late, what did the Dbacks manager get ejected for?

It was not explained...but I think he was arguing with the ump that Brosseau wasn't engaged with the pitcher by 8 seconds on the pitch clock...he was yapping then jumped out of the dugout to "talk" to the ump in the middle of the AB and was basically ejected on the spot.

Maybe Junk should check the runner when he laces up his track shoes and gets into the starting blocks.

Game day shown 3 pitches thus far at high corner strike called balls for Brewers. Pitch 1 in that AB was 1 of them. So may have included an issue with strike zone.

One hell of relay!

It is looking like my first impression of Junk from that spring game was not inaccurate.

[willie key]

We might not want any starters to get hurt this year

Don’t be the bigger man and give it back to that dude.  
 

😀

[Oxy]

That is why Wiemer and Turang are everyday players.  Holy smokes.

Already down 3. 

[brewcrewdue80]

Wow. That has to be a great replay reading a throw out at home.

4. But Jason Alexander isn't thought of as 1 by most.

Yep.    We gave up our depth already.    We can’t have woodruff or anyone getting hurt anymore

I am not counting Alexander. 

[markedman5]

So if pattern holds we get shutout again today?……..this Dback pitcher has got good stuff.

[Brock Beauchamp]

Contreras with a perfectly executed throw to the center fielder. 

[Brock Beauchamp]

Yeah. So this game is the opposite of fun. 

[HarryDoyle]

Junk is junk.

[BruisedCrew]

Junk will be taking one for the team before he gets the next flight back to Nashville. 
 

Then on to the bullpen day tomorrow while Lauer tends to his dead arm. 

[brewcrewdue80]

Yelich could have made more effort on that double. When's the last time he made a play that made contact to OF wall? Definitely seems avoiding such at least 2nd time this season.

[KeithStone53151]

Bruh, I could go up there...look at 5 pitches, and go sit back on the bench.

[YelichPosse]

Yelich is Junk, as is Junk. 

[mtrebs]

It seems like Yelich must lead the league in watching fastballs right down the plate for strike three.

He's such a guess hitter.  Very little ability to fight off the pitch he wasn't looking for.

Remember when he got accused of cheating way back when? I am more or less convinced a major part of his fall from grace is due to one or more types of cheating he no longer does. It doesn’t help he was buddy buddy with Braun, who also sprinted to sign a ‘team friendly’ extension before he found himself caught for cheating.

More a conspiracy theory because it isn’t like there is a bunch of good evidence…I just don’t really believe him busting a knee made him go from Top 5 hitter in baseball to this. Just seems a lil fishy.
