Major League Baseball games played Friday, July 20, 2007: A complete slate of 15 games played Friday produced two ejections.

As I previously noted here, in last night's game between the Chicago White Sox at the Boston Red Sox, third base umpire Tim McClelland ejected Red Sox manager Terry Francona in the bottom of the 1st inning for arguing that J.D. Drew's hit had cleared the green monster for a home run instead of having bounced back off the top of the wall for a double on which Manny Ramirez was tagged out at home to record the final out of the inning. The blown call by the umpires cost the Red Sox at least two runs, but it did not cost the Red Sox the victory, as the team beat the Pale Hose by the score of 10-3. You can access the box score at this link, while wraps from MLB.com are available here and here. Additional coverage is available from The Boston Globe (here and here); The Boston Herald (here, here, and here); The Chicago Tribune; The Chicago Sun-Times; and The Associated Press.

And as I previously noted here, in last night's game between the Seattle Mariners at the Toronto Blue Jays, first base umpire Tim Timmons ejected Blue Jays manager John Gibbons in the bottom of the 6th inning for arguing a check-swing that Timmons had called for a strike. The Mariners won the game by a score of 4-2. You can access the box score at this link, while wraps from MLB.com are available here and here. Additional coverage is available from The Toronto Star; The Seattle Post-Intelligencer; and The Associated Press.

Credit umpires Tim McClelland and Tim Timmons with one ejection each, and adjust your Umpire Fantasy League standings accordingly.
