TEMPE, Ariz. -- Manager Mike Scioscia was ejected in the third inning of the Angels' 7-4 win over the D-backs on Saturday following a heated exchange with home plate umpire Mike Cascioppo.
During an at-bat by left fielder Cameron Maybin, Cascioppo called a 1-0 pitch from Arizona starter Taijuan Walker a strike, even though it appeared low to players in the Angels' dugout. When they protested the call, Scioscia said Cascioppo, a Minor League umpire, told him to "shut up." Scioscia jumped on the rebuke, sparking an argument that eventually led to his ejection.
