LOS ANGELES — Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts was ejected in the sixth inning Wednesday night after coming on the field to argue a call at third base in a 9-4 loss to the Philadelphia Phillies. With LA up 4-3, Alec Bohm doubled to left and Brandon Marsh grounded into a fielder's choice to third. Third baseman Kiké Hernández handled the bunt to his left side and threw to Miguel Rojas. Bohm was called safe by third-base umpire Hunter Wendelstedt, who ruled interference by Rojas. Rojas jawed with Wendelstedt as Roberts came out of the dugout. Wendelstedt put up his hands indicating Roberts should stop. He didn't and Wendelstedt turned his back on Roberts before tossing him. It was Roberts' 12th career ejection and first this season.
