Showalter bucked after Davis is hit with pitch
9/11/15: Chris Davis rips an RBI single to right field, bringing the Orioles within one run in the 7thBALTIMORE -- Orioles manager Buck Showalter was ejected in the bottom of the eighth inning of Friday's game, a 14-8 win over the Royals, by home-plate umpire Mark Carlson for his animated arguing when both benches were warned.
Following back-to-back homers for the O's, including Nolan Reimold's go-ahead grand slam, Chris Davis was promptly hit in the back. Davis, the Major League leader with 41 homers, didn't take kindly to reliever Franklin Morales' plunking and slammed his bat into the ground as he glared from home plate.
