Blue Jays right-hander Casey Janssen was ejected in the sixth inning of Friday's game against Boston for arguing with third base umpire Mark Carlson, even though the umpires later ruled that Janssen was correct.

Boston led 14-0 with two out in the sixth when Mike Cameron scored from first on a double by Bill Hall that involved fan interference. Janssen argued that Cameron should have been sent back to third base and was tossed by Carlson.

After the pitcher left the field, the umpires huddled to discuss the play and sent Cameron back to third. Left-hander David Purcey came in stranded Cameron by getting Kevin Cash to fly out.
