German was perfect through three innings, but as he was heading back out to the mound for the bottom of the fourth inning, all four umpires stopped him to check his hands and glove for a sticky substance.
They clearly didn't like what they found, as German was sent back into the dugout and ejected from the game.

It caused an uproar with Minnesota Twins manager Rocco Baldelli because warnings are not supposed to be issued. But German had a mark on him since that start and now, with the very same umpiring crew from that start, they didn't like what they felt.
