OAKLAND -- A's manager Bob Melvin was ejected in the fifth inning of Wednesday's game against the Blue Jays by home-plate umpire Hunter Wendelstedt.
Melvin was seen in the dugout asking Wendelstedt about a called strike on Stephen Vogt that appeared to be a pitchout. Wendelstedt showed a quick hook, immediately tossing Melvin before the manager emerged from the dugout.
Melvin shared more words with acting crew chief Wendelstedt and also third-base umpire Bob Davidson before departing the field. It was his second ejection of the season.
Vogt responded with an RBI single to give the A's a 2-1 lead with one out in the inning.
