You Dirty, Dirty Hat
Cardinals reliever Julian Tavares was ejected from the game today because his hat was too dirty. In the thick layer of grime on Tavares' ballcap, the umpire found what he thought might be pine tar, which is specifically prohibited from being on the person of a pitcher. From the linked article:
It looks like a dirty hat shakedown is on.
First, Tavarez put his arm around home plate umpire Ron Kulpa and suggested the two get a beer after the game. Then he flipped his cap to a fan in the stands behind the dugout on his way off the field.You better watch your back, Freddy Garcia.
It looks like a dirty hat shakedown is on.

Note that it was the same Paul Emmell, Joe West Crew that ended that game in Tampa Bay on the "interference" by Lopez
