Domingo German Newsbeat

Yankees starter Domingo Germán ejected over sticky stuff one night after Aaron Judge cheating accusations

New York Yankees right-hander Domingo Germán was ejected from Tuesday’s game against the Toronto Blue Jays (NYY 6, TOR 3) after being checked for foreign substances, but denied that he had run afoul of MLB’s sticky stuff rules. Germán retired the first nine batters he faced, then was stopped when he came out to start the fourth inning. All four umpires were part of the inspection.

Crew chief James Hoye told reporters, including MLB.com, Germán’s hand was the “stickiest I’ve ever felt,” and added it was “definitely not rosin.”  Here is the inspection and the ejection:

Twins’ Baldelli ejected after encounter between umpire, Yankees’ German

Baldelli was ejected in the fourth inning after umpire James Hoye allowed Domingo German back into the game after appearing to tell him to “wash your hands.”

Hoye had checked German for sticky substances after the right-hander mowed down the Twins in the third inning. As German was headed back onto the field to pitch the fourth, Hoye checked him again and he was allowed to continue pitching.

Baldelli then raced out of the visitor’s dugout and argued with Hoye, who tossed him.

I’m pretty sure I would have gotten tossed, too. “Wash your hands”? Really?
