Dodgers star Manny Ramirez was ejected Sunday after arguing a called strike on the only pitch he saw as a pinch-hitter.

Ramirez came to bat in the sixth inning against Colorado with one out, the bases loaded and Los Angeles trailing 8-2.

Plate umpire Gary Cederstrom called strike one and Ramirez began arguing. Ramirez was quickly tossed and walked slowly back to the dugout while continuing to jaw with Cederstrom. The umpire turned away from Ramirez.

It was the first ejection this season for Ramirez. Reed Johnson came on to bat for Ramirez and hit into an inning-ending double play.
