Major League Baseball games played Monday, August 13, 2007: A partial slate of 8 games played Monday produced a single ejection.

In Los Angeles, where the Dodgers were hosting the Houston Astros, home plate umpire Tom Hallion ejected Dodgers third baseman Nomar Garciaparra in the bottom of the 4th inning for arguing a called strike three. The Astros won the game by a score of 4-1. You can access the box score at this link, while wraps from MLB.com are available here and here.
