Overview

• The incident occurred during the eighth inning of the Diamondbacks' 8-7 victory over the Giants at Oracle Park on May 14, 2025.
• Lovullo was ejected by first-base umpire Mark Ripperger after vehemently disputing an obstruction call on second baseman Jordan Lawlar.
• In a dramatic protest, Lovullo mimicked ejecting all four umpires before leaving the field.
• Postgame, Lovullo acknowledged the call was correct and praised the umpires' decision-making process.
• The obstruction ruling did not affect the outcome, as the Diamondbacks stranded the runners and secured the series win, taking two of three games.
