Giants-Dodgers: Dave Roberts, Max Muncy melt down after SF completes massive comeback versus LA
Manager Dave Roberts of the Los Angeles Dodgers reacts after first base umpire Ed Hickox made the call on a no-swing for a walk to Darin Ruf of the San Francisco Giants to tie the game 3-3 in the ninth inning at Dodger Stadium on July 22, 2021.The Giants looked dead in the water on Thursday and entered the ninth inning down 3-1. Then they strung together four runs and won 5-3.
In the midst of Jansen's latest meltdown — bases loaded, two outs, and the Dodgers clinging to a 3-2 lead — San Francisco's Darin Ruf got away with a check swing that probably should've been called a strike. That tied things up at 3-3, and compelled Roberts to storm the field and get ejected.
