Rewind: Called strike haunts Giants in loss to Dodgers

LOS ANGELES — Alejandro De Aza hoped to make an impact on his first night in orange and black. This wasn’t exactly what he had in mind.

De Aza flashed a sad smile as he joked that he didn’t anticipate getting his manager ejected in his debut. Bruce Bochy couldn’t help himself after the top of the seventh, when De Aza took a 2-2 changeup off the outer edge and got called out with two on and one out in a one-run game. Bochy spent the commercial break arguing with home plate ump Mike Winters, and when play resumed the manager’s night was done.
