Tempers were flying in Atlanta on Sunday as Dave Martinez and Trea Turner were both ejected in Sundays game between the Braves and Nationals. The two Nationals were arguing ball and strike calls when they were thrown out in the top of the fifth.

The ejection was preceded by Turner being called out on strikes from a pitch he felt was low. Turner then threw his bat and argued in the umpire's face. Despite that, the Nationals hold a 4-1 lead.
