Cincinnati Reds rookie Nick Senzel ejected for arguing after strikeout against Rockies

Unhappy after his strikeout that ended the fourth inning Sunday, Cincinnati Reds center fielder Nick Senzel continued to chat with home-plate umpire Bill Miller between innings.

Reds catcher Tucker Barnhart, who was stranded on third base in the inning, tapped Senzel on his way to the dugout. Third-base coach J.R. House stood between Senzel and Miller as they continued to talk.

After more than 20 seconds, Senzel became more animated in his argument toward Miller. House tried to move Senzel toward the direction of the dugout and backup catcher Kyle Farmer briefly tugged at a piece of Senzel's jersey when Miller signaled Senzel's ejection.
