An umpire appeared to eject Philadelphia Phillies shortstop Trea Turner for the simple act of tossing his equipment to a bat boy while disputing a called strike three.
Trea Turner was ejected after striking out and conversing with umpire Will Little.That’s when Little tossed Turner from the game further infuriating the Phillies infielder, who tried to argue the ejection.
“If that’s the reason he got thrown out then that’s not a good reason,” one of the Phillies’ broadcasters said while showing the replay. Turner went 0-for-3 at the plate, including the strikeout to end the fifth, and committed two errors before he was ejected in the Orioles’ 3-2 win.In the top of the fifth, Turner booted what looked like a possible double-play ball.
The routine ground ball bounced out of Turner’s glove as he tried to make the play eliciting a chorus of boos from the fans at Citizens Bank Park.Turner has struggled mightily this year slashing .247/.300/.387 for the Phillies after signing a massive 11-year, $300 million contract in December. “He is one of the best players in the league for a reason,” Harper said Monday. “He’ll get going. We trust in him to be the best. He’ll do that.”He even drew the ire of the city’s“Trea Turner, I’m getting freakin’ sick of this guy,” DeCamara said during Monday’s show. “Do you expect Trea Turner to turn it around this season? Yes or no? Count me as a no. I’ve seen enough to know, I now don’t count on the guy and I’m frickin’ sick and tired of it.
