For the first time in a generation, a captain of the New York Yankees was ejected from a game.

Aaron Judge got the boot in the bottom of the seventh inning of Saturday's Yankees-Tigers game after arguing a called strike three.

It is rather impressive that that was Judge's first ejection since joining the big leagues since 2016, considering that no one in baseball has had more balls below the zone called strikes against him since his MLB debut. (He also has the fourth-most anywhere outside the zone.)

Judge was called out on strikes on a borderline pitch on the outside corner. Clearly upset with the call, he had some words with the home plate umpire, Ryan Blakney.

The Yankee outfielder made his way to the dugout but appeared to say the call was "bulls--t" - that's when Blakney tossed him.

Manager Aaron Boone, who has the most ejections since 2018 when he became a manager, came out of the dugout to discuss the ejection, just as Judge made his way back to plead his case.

It appeared that Blakney replied to Judge, "You're not going to tell me that's bulls--t."
