The Dodgers put a hurting on Phillies reliever Yacksel Rios on Monday night, rallying for three quick runs on two doubles and an Alex Verdugo homer after Rios came in to open the eighth inning.

The flurry of scoring gave Los Angeles a 12-1 lead in the game, and apparently gave home-plate umpire Doug Eddings reason to fear that Rios might retaliate for the Verdugo dinger. So when Rios hit Justin Turner in the knee with his very next pitch, Eddings quickly tossed the righty from the game.

It’s an understandable instinct on the umpire’s part to try to keep players’ emotions in check in a blowout, but Rios hit Turner with an 85-mph slider that pretty clearly just slipped away. So after the ejection, even Turner appeared to argue with Eddings on Rios’ behalf:

I’ve seen a lot of baseball in my life, and I’m almost certain that’s the first time I’ve ever seen a batter come to a pitcher’s defense after being plunked. Turner would come around to score in the inning, and Los Angeles went on to win, 16-2.

You might be thinking, right now, about how “Yacksel Rios” is just a straight-up awesome-sounding name and how it is undoubtedly the coolest name in the Phillies’ bullpen. But believe it or not, the Phillies’ bullpen also includes guys named J.D. Hammer, Ranger Suarez and (the currently injured) Seranthony Dominguez.
