Ejection in San Diego! What would a busy day of ejections be without an ejection by 2007 minor league call-up umpire Brian Knight? Fortunately, we won't have to find out, as in Saturday night's game in San Diego between the Padres and the Boston Red Sox, third base umpire Knight ejected Red Sox manager Terry Francona after the umpiring crew had convened to decide that a long fly ball along the left field line, originally called a foul ball, had in fact hit off of the foul pole for a two-run home run by Padres catcher Josh Bard. The Red Sox are currently losing by a score of 6-0. You can access the box score at this link.

Credit Brian Knight with one ejection and adjust your Umpire Fantasy League standings accordingly.
