Profar ejected from game


Down to their final three outs in Game 3 of the National League Championship Series, the San Diego Padres appeared to send the tying run to first base ... only for third base umpire Todd Tichenor to call Jurickson Profar out on a controversial swinging-strike call.

Profar tossed and then kicked his batting helmet in protest, prompting home plate umpire Ted Barrett to eject the outfielder from Friday's contest against the Philadelphia Phillies.
