Manny Machado is ejected by plate umpire Ron Kulpa after arguing a strikeout call over a pitch clock violation.
The man he was not ready.
Wow, so with eight seconds, that's going to be strike three.
Wow.
Man, he was kind of fiddling around with his batting gloves,
and it got to eight seconds.
He was not ready and looking back out at the pitcher.
And he's going to argue this, but that is strike three.
It's a strike, and the count was three and two.
Oh, no.
And Bob Melvin has been ejected.
Was it Machado or Melvin who was ejected?
Somebody just got tossed.
So, Manny was not in the ready position in the batter's box
with eight seconds left, and that's the rule.
And whoever got tossed, that must have been Manny there.
