Chip Hale ejected in Arizona baseball’s blowout of ASU to clinch series

Chip Hale had to watch the end of his first series win over ASU from the clubhouse.

“It’s a lot easier to coach when you’re watching it on TV,” Hale, an Arizona alum and first-year head coach, who was ejected during the bottom of the 5th inning of Sunday’s 14-4 win over the Sun Devils.

Hale was tossed by home plate umpire Jeffrey Macias after Macias said UA hitter Chase Davis did not make an attempt to avoid a pitch from ASU’s Jacob Walker that plunked him in the right leg.
