Dodgers | Manny's line: Two hits, three RBIs, one ejection
The Newark Star-Ledger reports Los Angeles Dodgers OF Manny Ramirez went 2-for-4 with three RBIs before being ejected in the Dodgers' 8-0 shutout of the New York Mets Tuesday, July 7. Ramirez struck out looking in the first and fifth innings, sandwiched around a two-run broken-bat single in the second and an RBI single in the fourth. He made an early exit when home plate umpire John Hirschbeck threw him out of the game after his second strikeout for throwing his bat, helmet and batting glove in frustration.

News: For someone just back, Manny Ramirez made quite an exit. After looking at another strike three, the Dodgers star dropped his bat, tossed his helmet and flung his elbow pad Tuesday night. Booed for much of the game against the New York Mets, Ramirez then heard his departure cue from plate umpire John Hirschbeck. Ramirez was ejected as he walked toward the outfield for the bottom of the fifth inning. By then, he'd done enough damage, driving in three runs as Los Angeles won 8-0. Ramirez went 2 for 4 in the game and is batting .340 on the year. [...]

Manny Ramirez went 2-for-4 with three RBIs as the Dodgers hammered the Mets on Tuesday, but also struck out twice and got ejected.

"Yeah, he'll be in there," Torre said. "I told him unless he came in feeling all beat up in the morning, he's going to play the game." Owners should continue to keep close watch of Manny's playing time, as it's unclear exactly how quickly he'll be slotted back into everyday action.

Well, this is what the rest of the career of Manny Ramirez looks like: the guy is more notorious than ever, which in today's culture just happens to mean he is more popular, "notoriety" having lost its true meaning. It was a very successful debut Friday night in San Diego for Ramirez as a confirmed user of a banned drug. Hitless? Yeah, so what? It was successful because Ramirez was cheered roundly by the thousands of Dodgers fans at Petco Park (Padres fans booed, but without much conviction, as if playing a role) and because Ramirez knew he got away with almost no accounting for his actions.

With Manny Ramirez back in the lineup in place of Juan Pierre, Dodgers manager Joe Torre elected to return Rafael Furcal to the leadoff position on Friday.
Analysis: Torre said he decided to go back to the top of the lineup he was using before Ramirez was suspended. That meant Furcal batting first, followed by Orlando Hudson, Ramirez and Andre Ethier, who stands to benefit most from Manny's return. Ethier, who is 2-for-19 in his past five games, saw his average fall 60 points during Manny's suspension. The only major change from the pre-suspension lineup was moving Casey Blake to the fifth spot as protection for Ethier. Blake started the season batting eighth.
