Cubs' Contreras ejected, gets money's worth vs. D-Backs originally appeared on NBC Sports Chicago

Contreras was ejected in the seventh inning for arguing with home plate umpire Ryan Additon, after he got rung up on a fastball that appeared off the plate inside.

Contreras exchanged words with Additon and then drew a line in the right-hander's batter's box to indicate where he thought the pitch was.

Additon ejected him, and Contreras went back to the plate and drew a full circle around it. He slammed his helmet into the ground and walked off the field as manager David Ross had a conversation with Additon.
The Cubs had trailed the entire game to that point but were in the middle of a rally.
