In Cincinnati, where the Reds hosted the Los Angeles Dodgers, home plate umpire Paul Emmel ejected Reds pinch hitter Adam Dunn in the bottom of the 9th inning for arguing a called third strike. At the time of the ejection, the game was tied 4-4. The Dodgers ended up winning 5-4 in 11 innings. You can access the box score at this link, while wraps from MLB.com are available here and here.
