AI-synthesized · Bias removed · Facts only

Atlanta Braves ace Chris Sale was ejected by umpire Dan Merzel before the start of Sunday's game against the New York Yankees. The ejection occurred after a controversial balk call on Saturday.

The ejection took place as umpires walked past the Braves’ dugout on the third base line prior to any pitches being thrown in the Sunday matchup. According to the Associated Press, Sale was ejected by umpire Dan Merzel.

This incident follows a contentious situation from the previous day where Sale was called for a balk that allowed a run to score. The AP reported no further details regarding the specific reason for Sunday’s ejection beyond it occurring as umpires approached the dugout.
