CHICAGO (AP) — White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen was ejected for arguing a balk call in the fifth inning of Friday night’s game against the Kansas City Royals.
Guillen ran out of the White Sox dugout after home plate umpire Angel Hernadez called a balk against Mark Buehrle. Hernandez also called Buehrle for a balk in the fourth inning.
Hernandez, the home plate umpire, tossed Guillen seconds after they began arguing. When Guillen was done with Hernandez, he directed his anger toward crew chief Joe West. Guillen and West have had a contentious relationship.
Guillen yelled at West, the third base umpire, before leaving for the dugout. While in the dugout Guillen continued yelling at West before heading into the clubhouse.
It was Guillen’s sixth ejection this year.
