George Springer Ejected Over Replay Dispute

Toronto Blue Jays outfielder George Springer was ejected in the seventh inning of a game against the Los Angeles Angels after a controversial call that ruled he was not hit by a pitch. Despite video replay suggesting the ball might have grazed Springer's foot, the call stood, prompting Springer to erupt in anger. Springer had to be restrained by teammates Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and coach Mark Budzinski. Springer acknowledged he knew arguing the call would lead to an automatic ejection but expressed disbelief at the decision. MLB stated that the replay official could not definitively determine the ball hit Springer. The incident overshadowed the Blue Jays' 6-1 victory over the Angels.
