Mets reliever Yohan Ramirez was ejected Saturday for throwing behind Rhys Hoskins, one day after Hoskins slid hard into Jeff McNeil and benches cleared.
Tensions from Friday's Mets-Brewers matinée carried into Saturday, and it resulted in an ejection. The benches cleared Friday, but no punches were thrown, after Milwaukee's Rhys Hoskins slid hard into second baseman Jeff McNeil, who took exception. The slide was ruled legal. Predictably, the Citi Field crowd booed Hoskins all day Saturday, but it didn't bother him one bit. On the first pitch he saw, he laced a two-run single. Two innings later, he belted a two-run home run.
After adding a single, Hoskins came up to the plate in the top of the seventh to face Yohan Ramirez, and Ramirez's first pitch was a 94 mph fastball up and behind Hoskins. As a few players jumped the dugout railings, umpires convened for a bit, while Hoskins told someone, 'That's f---ed up.' VIEW MOMENT ON X Even Mets announcer Ron Darling criticized the pitch, saying 'the message was about two hours late.
In 2019, he hit a home run against New York and took 34 seconds to trot around the bases. Hoskins had also been upset with a pitch that was over his head from Jacob Rhame.
