The Nationals beat the Marlins 2-0 on Monday afternoon. While it was a low-scoring game, there were some very early fireworks as Miami leadoff hitter Xavier Edwards disagreed with home plate umpire Brennan Miller's third call of the game and ended up getting tossed.
With a 1-1 count pitcher Andrew Alvarez threw a slider that caught the top of the strike zone. When Miller called it a strike Edwards stepped all the way out of the batter's box with attitude. He grounded out on the next pitch and then got thrown out while still complaining about the high strike in the dugout as the next at-bat started.
