Summary

Wright State’s Andrew Duncan and head coach Alex Sogard were ejected from the Horizon League championship college baseball game against Milwaukee. The ejections occurred after a questionable call by the umpire, with Duncan being thrown out for expressing his displeasure with a head shake and Sogard being tossed for arguing the ruling. The Raiders lost the game 5-4, with Milwaukee clinching an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament on a walk-off home run.


Our Reading

The routine arrives with confidence.

College baseball umpires know how to make an exit. Ejections are their love language. A head shake is all it takes. Coaches know better than to argue. They still can’t help themselves. The game is a sideshow. The real show is the umpire’s ego trip.

It’s not about the game; it’s about who can throw the most players and coaches out.

This umpire ejected a player for a head shake and a coach for being furious about it. What a power move.
