- Bumgarner ejected after hand checked for foreign substance
- First-base umpire accused of instigating Arizona left-hander
- Pitcher was restrained by teammates following confrontation
Arizona Diamondbacks pitcher Madison Bumgarner was ejected Wednesday right after his hand was checked for a foreign substance.
Bumgarner gave up a leadoff homer to Jon Berti in the first inning at Miami, and then retired the next three batters. As he was walking to the dugout, the veteran left-hander gestured with his arm before holding his hand out for first base umpire Dan Bellino to take a look.
