Umpire Ejects Both Managers On Same Play in Angels-Guardians Game (Video)

They say if you go to the ballpark, there’s a chance you’ll see something you’ve never seen before. Monday’s double ejection in Cleveland might not have been a first, but it certainly qualifies as rare.

What happened at Progressive Field in the seventh inning of the Angels-Guardians game was definitely bizarre. With two outs in the bottom of the seventh inning, both Cleveland manager Terry Francona and Angels interim manager Phil Nevin were ejected on the same play by home plate umpire Ron Kulpa. The double toss got Cleveland’s fans plenty riled up as the situation on the field devolved into pure chaos.
