Hitting someone in the face with your glove once meant you wanted to duel. For Keon Broxton on Monday night, it meant getting ejected.

The brief Mets outfielder, now with the Mariners, was called out looking by home plate umpire Manny Gonzalez on a J.A. Happ 3-2 pitch to end the top of the second inning against the Yankees. It appeared to be a borderline strike on the outside corner after the Mariners had scored three times in the frame to cut the Yankees’ lead to 4-3 at T-Mobile Park.

A seemingly disgusted Broxton reacted by tossing his bat in front of the plate, flipping his helmet off and throwing his left batting glove backward toward home plate without looking. The glove accidentally hit Gonzalez, who had just taken his helmet off, across the face.

Gonzalez immediately ejected Broxton.

When Broxton expressed his displeasure, it appears Gonzalez informed him what happened.

“You hit me in my face,” the umpire appeared to say.

Broxton, who first landed with the Orioles after the Mets traded him in May, came into Monday’s game hitting .140 with two home runs and five RBIs in 43 at-bats for Seattle.
