Los Angeles Angels manager Phil Nevin has been ejected from major league games over the years, but he had never been on the receiving end of a double ejection — until Wednesday.

Nevins was ejected twice from Wednesday's game against the Yankees.

"That's a first," he said before Thursday's series finale against New York.

Nevin was initially upset after an umpire called star outfielder Mike Trout out on a checked swing. The Angels had two runners on base when Trout was called out.

Nevin quickly emerged from the Angels dugout and began yelling at first base umpire Will Little. Nevins was tossed, but that did not stop him from continuing to walk toward Little.

Nevin said he told Barksdale he already had been tossed, "Just to let you know."

The umpire responded, "Oh, I'm sorry," according to Nevin.

Nevin went to short right field to tell Little his thoughts from up close.
