NEW YORK -- Mets manager Terry Collins was ejected in the fifth inning of Tuesday's game against the Phillies for arguing a catcher's interference call at home plate.
Collins' ejection was the culmination of four innings' worth of drama. After Phillies starter David Buchanan hit two Mets batters with pitches in the second inning, injuring one of them, Matt Harvey came close to plunking Freddy Galvis with a pitch half an inning later. When home-plate umpire Alfonso Marquez ruled that he did, Collins attempted to challenge, but a rules check revealed that the play was not reviewable.
