Adam Eaton envisioned his second career ejection to be a little more exciting.
Surely, White Sox fans would stand and scream in support of their outfielder. Teammates would rally to his defense. Maybe the vendors would bark a little louder, the organist would punch the keys a little harder.
None of that happened, of course.
Instead, Eaton was called out on strikes to end Friday’s game. He argued with home plate umpire Hunter Wendelstedt, and he was tossed. From a game that already was over.
“Really anticlamactic, to be honest with you,” Eaton said.
It was a strange ending to what has been an unsettling week and a half for the White Sox.
