Dodgers: Max Muncy Ejected From Game and Goes Off on the Umpire
It’s been a frustrating year for some of the Dodgers’ biggest stars. Max Muncy is definitely one of those guys, and that’s resulted in a few uncharacteristic outburst. Muncy was thrown out of a game in mid-August after being annoyed with balls and strikes against the Mariners. Last night, he got the second ejection of his career.
To be fair to Max, Doug Eddings’ strike zone was all over the place. He was definitely more of a pitcher’s umpire calling things out of the zone more often than not. And for a guy like Muncy, who is struggling in 2020, those calls hurt even more. It also doesn’t help that the Dodgers were getting beat in that game by an awful team.
