MLB Fans Ripped Ump For Being Way Too Sensitive After Very Quick Ejection

A’s first baseman Ryan Noda suffered an immediate ejection from Monday night’s game against the Red Sox after he appeared to draw a little line in the sand after striking out, which the umpire didn’t like at all. 

This was the second line-drawing ejection we’ve seen this month, but this one by Noda was pretty subtle. He wasn’t happy about a pitch earlier in the at-bat being called a strike so after swinging and missing on strike three, he drew a line in the dirt with his bat while walking back to the dugout. 

Home plate umpire Emil Jimenez didn’t like that at all and quickly threw him out of the game: 

I get why Jimenez might be a little upset set there, but he did seem to be way too sensitive about the whole thing.
