CLEARWATER, Fla. -- Three pitchers were ejected along with Philadelphia manager Gabe Kapler and bench coach Rob Thomson as three batters were hit by pitches during the Phillies' 6-2 exhibition loss to Detroit on Thursday.
Detroit starter Matthew Boyd and Philadelphia relievers Parker Frazier and Pedro Beato also were tossed by plate umpire Tom Hallion.
Boyd was ejected in the fifth inning following a two-pitch sequence to Odubel Herrera.
"The first one that went over his head, I looked up as I was making the delivery and he was bailing out of the box," Boyd said.
