Washington submitted and successfully passed the addition of Rule 2.00(Respect) and Rule 3.06 to the Announcers' Ejection Rules.

At the time of the great success in human interaction and the egregious error in umpire conduct, Washington was leading over Pittsburgh 4-3. Washington ultimately won the contest 10-7.

2.00 RESPECT - Something earned by players willing to make a blood sacrifice for their team.

3.06) Umpires may only eject a pitcher if they hit the batter with a pitch.
