Gibbons ejected after arguing quick-pitch call

ANAHEIM -- Blue Jays manager John Gibbons was ejected from Sunday's game against the Angels in the bottom of the third inning. It was his first ejection of the season.

Gibbons was tossed by home-plate umpire Ramon De Jesus. Gibbons came out of the dugout and onto the field after some confusion during a plate appearance by Kole Calhoun.

The umpires appeared to award Calhoun first base on an illegal quick pitch by starter Marcus Stroman, on a 3-1 count. Calhoun signaled for time and Stroman delivered a pitch to the plate. Calhoun was then sent to first base.
