ANAHEIM, Calif. — Yasiel Puig at first feigned amnesia.

“Last night?” he said. “I don’t remember anything about last night? What happened?”

A lot in Puig’s case.

He was ejected by home plate Kerwin Danley in the sixth inning of the Reds’ 5-1 loss to the Los Angeles Angels. Danley ran Puig quickly. Puig had no explanation as to why.

“You have to ask him,” Puig said. “I no say nothing to him, and he eject me right away. I don’t know what the reason. Then after that, I went to him to ask what I said, but he already throw me.
