The ejection came moments after an replay challenge by Hinch confirmed a fan-interference call on the field made by DiMuro that went against the Astros. Evan Gattis was called out after a popup he hit to left field was deflected by a fan, who reached onto the field and over the glove of shortstop Brad Miller to rob him off the catch.
DiMuro immediately called Gattis out, and Hinch challenged. The crowd roared when the replay shown on the large video board in center field clearly showed the yellow-shirt-clad fan reaching out over the glove of Miller.
