Milwaukee Brewers: Did Counsell & Braun deserve ejections?

Manager Craig Counsell has only been ejected 14 times in 4 1/3 seasons with the Milwaukee Brewers. He doesn’t often lose his cool, but it’s impressive when he does. Ryan Braun has only been ejected six times in over 1,600 games with the Brewers. Did they deserve to hit the showers early on Saturday?

Who was tossed first

Braun was ejected in the fourth inning after arguing balls and strikes with home plate umpire Mike Estabrook. Counsell was tossed after the eighth inning for arguing about the strike zone.

What happened with Braun

Braun took an 0-1 pitch from Philadelphia Phillies starter Jake Arrieta.
