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.
Things became normal after a few minutes. But, once again, after a heated argument in the ballpark, the home plate umpire Lance Barrett ejected the Blue Jays manager Charlie Montoyo.
Yimi Garcia ejected for hitting Josh Donaldson in a tie game. Pete Walker also tossed.

They just tossed Yimi Garcia for plunking Donaldson in a tie game. Second pitch of the AB. 0-1 count.
What a joke.
MLB has blown it with the actual slippery baseballs and to think there's intent in this spot, in a 3-3 game, is beyond absurd.

WOW. The umpires have ejected Yimi Garcia after Josh Donaldson was hit by a pitch. Not even a warning. Blue Jays manager Charlie Montoyo has also been tossed.

What an ump show, throwing out Yimi Garcia is a trash move. A tie game in the 6th. That’s a terrible decision.

After the multiple ejections from the umpires, baseball fans got furious and showed their outburst on Twitter.
LMAO no warning just straight tossing Yimi Garcia, eh?
— Jordan Cicchelli (@jordancicchelli) May 11, 2022
Well, it's officially boiling over.
Yimi García has been tossed and the #BlueJays dugout is heated. Several coaches out on the field, some holding him back. Montoyo as hot as he's been all year.
