Anthony Rendon had never been ejected from a game in the majors headed into Saturday’s home game against the Mets. That streak—640 regular season games—came to an end in the bottom of the third inning, after Rendon struck out looking to end the inning, and was blatantly disrespectful to umpire Marty Foster by, uhhhhhhh.....
Dropped the bat, looked away, said nothing—ejected. That’ll teach him to not angrily and demonstratively disagree with the call, like a real professional! Davey Martinez, Rendon’s manager, let Foster have it, at least earning his first career ejection as a manager. Someone give that big angry baby a warm bottle!
