Cal Stevenson greeted Uceta with a two-run double before Buddy Kennedy added an RBI single and Trea Turner capped the scoring with a two-run homer. Bryce Harper doubled after Turner’s homer and Uceta then hit Castellanos on his left hip with the next pitch, which the veteran outfielder expected.

Uceta was subsequently ejected from the game, with the Rays inserting fellow reliever Hunter Bigge in his place. On Wednesday, Major League Baseball suspended Uceta for three games and fined him an undisclosed amount, pending Uceta's right to appeal. Rays manager Kevin Cash was suspended for one game and also issued an undisclosed fine.
