Red Sox manager Alex Cora got an early shower tonight after he was ejected for arguing balls and strikes. The toss came after Andrew Benintendi was called out on a borderline strike three call with the bases loaded that effectively ended Boston’s threat in Game 1 of the ALCS against the Houston Astros.

As you can see, the problem shouldn’t have been with the call, Benintendi shouldn’t have taken something that close.
