Oberholtzer ejected

More info

Who knew the drama this weekend wouldn't come from the Royals-A's series in Oakland?

Instead, tensions were high at Minute Maid Park in Houston, where Astros starter Brett Oberholtzer was ejected in the second inning for throwing a pitch at Alex Rodriguez.

Apparently, Oberholtzer got up on the wrong side of bed Saturday morning. He wasn't effective at all during his abbreviated stint on the mound, and he didn't have much patience to deal with his struggles.
