MLB star and his manager ejected in quick succession after heated showdown with umpire
Umpire Ramon de Jesus appeared to have zero interest in hearing arguments on balls and strikes in a Sunday afternoon game between the Colorado Rockies and the Milwaukee Brewers. In the top of the third in the game played in Wisconsin, Rockies batter Tyler Freeman passed on the chance to swing on an 0-2 pitch from Brewers starter Chad Patrick. The ball appeared to clip the lower part of the zone, but mostly stayed below the established rectangle and bounced out of catcher William Contreras' glove. Nevertheless, de Jesus rang up Freeman on a called third strike and sent the right fielder into a state. Freeman slumped in disbelief before turning and angrily yelling at de Jesus for a brief second before turning to walk back to the dugout. Having seemingly heard enough, de Jesus almost instantly tossed Freeman from the game - causing the outfielder to have another shocked reaction. Tyler Freeman ejected and... Warren Schaeffer — Bobby (@welcomeMLB) June 29, 2025 Schaeffer even got down on his knees to show de Jesus how low his third strike call was Out of the dugout came a sprinting manager Warren Schaeffer, who angrily took out his chewing gum and threw it on the ground before continuing on with his rant at de Jesus. When Schaeffer slammed his hat to the dirt, the umpire tossed him as well. A still red-hot Schaeffer then got on his knees to seemingly show de Jesus how low the pitch was. After a seemingly more composed conversation, both Schaeffer and Freeman headed back to the dugout and down the tunnel to the clubhouse. According to the umpire tracking website UmpScorecards, de Jesus is relatively average when it comes to call accuracy and a metric determining the difference between actual correct calls and expected correct calls. The struggling Rockies, who have yet to hit 20 wins on the season as the calendar flips to July, won their 19th of the season in a 4-3 victory in eleven innings. The win helped prevent a sweep in the series after losing 10-6 and 5-0 earlier in the weekend.
