CHICAGO — White Sox hitting coach Marcus Thames was ejected from the game against the Pittsburgh Pirates on Saturday.
Thames was thrown out by home plate umpire Malachi Moore with Chicago batting in the third. With one out, Tommy Pham took a called strike on a pitch near the knees from Pittsburgh’s Luis Ortiz. Pham was unhappy, and the White Sox got fired up, leading to Thames getting tossed.
Chicago’s Nicky Lopez also had a discussion with Moore after striking out to end the second.
Thames, who played in the majors from 2002 to 2011, is in his first year with the White Sox.
Thames was also ejected Aug. 8, 2020, as the Yankees hitting coach vs. the Rays for arguing with Vic Carapazza.
