New York Mets manager Jerry Manuel has been ejected in the second inning of a game against the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Manuel was ejected Friday night after arguing a call by first base umpire Doug Eddings, who ruled Luis Castillo out. Replays showed Castillo's foot was already on the bag before shortstop Rafael Furcal's throw reached the glove of James Loney.

Manuel came on the field and gestured wildly at Eddings, who tossed him out. It was his third ejection of the season.

Bench coach Dave Jauss took over as manager.

The Mets entered the game having lost four straight and were 1-7 on their 11-game West Coast trip since the All-Star break.
