TL;DR Summary

Bryce Harper and Jake Bird were ejected from the game after Harper stormed the field and benches cleared when Bird taunted the Phillies' dugout. The incident occurred in the seventh inning of the Phillies' 4-0 loss to the Rockies at Coors Field. Harper said he was fine with players showing emotion, but once it becomes about a team or an individual, he has a problem with it. The Phillies failed to get a review on a play likely to be overturned in the seventh because crew chief Jeff Nelson said bench coach Mike Calitri could not request a replay from the dugout phone.
