Having a bit of deja vu?
You should be. It was just a couple of weeks ago that Miami Marlins infielder Jean Segura didn’t like a call from an umpire on a strike and drew a line in the dirt to show where that pitch was, indicating it was outside. He was tossed immediately.
On Monday night, it was Oakland A’s first baseman Ryan Noda who saw a strike called — to be fair, it looked like it JUST hit the outside corner according to the broadcast, but we’ll see it’s borderline — and then took his bat and swiped some dirt.
BOOM, he was thrown out immediately, just like Segura.
