Toronto Blue Jays played against the New York Yankees on Tuesday. This game was one of the most thrilling games of the season. Apart from a stunning game-changing home run from Aaron Judge, this game also saw some heated moments in the ballpark.

Just a week ago, when these two teams faced each other in Toronto, the Blue Jays put a brake on their 11-game winning streak. Although the Blue Jays lost the series by 2-1, they did not let the Yankees dominate them.

It is not the first time the umpiring has been questionable in the 2022 season. And during the Tuesday game, the Blue Jays became the recent victim. The Blue Jays pitcher Yusei Kikuchi gave the ball to reliever Yimi Garcia in the sixth inning of the game

Later, in the game, Garcia threw a nasty pitch to the Yankees hitter, Josh Donaldson. The fastball hit straight to the arm of Donaldson. Though Donaldson did not react much from the plate, he knew it might not be intentional. But the umpires took a quick decision and ejected Garcia and pitching coach Pete Walker from the game.
