Toronto Blue Jays confused, upset over series of 'surprising' ejections in loss to New York Yankees

The Blue Jays suffered a deflating loss Tuesday against the Yankees, but it was a series of umpire decisions earlier in the game that left Toronto players and coaches scratching their heads.

Blue Jays reliever Yimi Garcia, manager Charlie Montoyo and pitching coach Pete Walker all were ejected as part of a bizarre sequence during the sixth and seventh innings.

Two pitches after allowing a game-tying three-run home run to Giancarlo Stanton, Garcia hit Josh Donaldson in the upper left arm with a 94 mph fastball, prompting an angry response from the Yankees dugout.
