Joel Peralta of the Rays enters a game against the Nationals in relief of David Price in the 8th inning, but is ejected before throwing a pitch for having pine tar on his glove. It is Nats manager Davey Johnson, Peralta’s former skipper, who advises umpire Tim Tschida to check the pitcher’s glove, giving rise to suspicion that the hurler may have been a habitual offender in this respect. The ejection comes with an automatic ten -game suspension. The Rays still manage to win the game, 5 – 4.
