It&#8217;s never my first thought, second thought, or tenth thought. Gabe is a good man and a good umpire. But I felt like I had enough of certain calls that were made. I knew once I left the dugout that I was gonna be ejected. It was a conscious decision, subconscious decision I made \u2014 I don&#8217;t know. I just felt like I needed to make a statement and tell him how I felt.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lovullo went on to mention that he had a chance to watch the game \u201cthrough a different lens,\u201d adding, \u201cI was proud of the way we fought. We scored an early run, Gurriel has a big three-run home run. Corbin, when they closed the gap a little bit, had a great approach and drove the ball over the left-center-field wall. When you\u2019re hitting the ball that hard the opposite way, you\u2019re loaded up and in a really good hitting position. That\u2019s not an accidental swing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In Lovullo\u2019s eyes, the key play was Chafin pitching out of the bases loaded, no out jam in the seventh while only allowing the three inherited runners to score. \u201cWhat I said to the team at the beginning of the year is to be able to execute at a critical moment\u2026. We did it several times today, and that one play highlighted it for me.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Looking Ahead<\/h3>\n<p>Kyle Nelson (2\u20130) notched the win in relief, while Junk (0\u20131) took the loss.
