Victorino Ejected From Outfield

Phillies center fielder Shane Victorino was ejected from the outfield in the top of the seventh inning on Sunday.

Victorino threw his arms up after a pitch by Rodrigo Lopez to Florida's Wes Helms was called a ball.

Home plate umpire Ed Rapuano promptly tossed him. Victorino ran in from center, but was restrained by teammates.

"I love Ed. He's a great guy, one of the best umpires in the game," Victorino said, according to the Associated Press. "It's unfortunate what happened. I let my emotions get the best of me. I hope Ed doesn't hold it against me."
