Giants rally with 3 runs in 7th to beat NL
MIAMI (AP) — Jung Hoo Lee had two hits, including a tying single in the seventh inning, and the San Francisco Giants overcame an early three-run deficit to beat the NL-worst Miami Marlins 4-3 on Monday night.
The Marlins fell to 3-14, and their frustration boiled over in the bottom of the eighth when plate umpire Laz Díaz ejected manager Skip Schumaker.
First, Schumaker emerged from the dugout and had a heated exchange with Díaz but wasn’t tossed. During Nick Gordon’s pinch-hit appearance, Schumaker again stepped onto the field and argued with Díaz before he was ejected.
Schumaker said his disagreement with the umpire stemmed from the clock usage when the Giants mistakenly planned to bring in Taylor Rogers instead of Camilo Doval with a runner on base in the eighth. Rogers remained in the bullpen, Doval entered and Schumaker felt the extended delay should have resulted in a pitch clock violation and awarded Gordon a 1-0 count.
