Ejection:

Diamondbacks starting pitcher Madison Bumgarner gave up a home run to lead off the bottom of the first inning against the Marlins in Miami on Wednesday in matinee action

The Diamondbacks would respond with an 8-7 win, on the strength of a five-run third inning, to sweep the Marlins. 

Ejected:

“I know why I got thrown out, yes,” he said (via Bally Sports Arizona).

“I don’t know if I can say anything that would make the situation better, so what I’m gonna say is I’m extremely proud of our team coming back and winning today because I put us in a big hole there. Obviously you didn’t go into the game with the intention of throwing one inning, so for them to be able to fight and everyone picked me up today, for that to happen that’s pretty incredible. Very proud.” 

Video:

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.

Both Bumgarner and the Diamondbacks have been rolling, surprisingly, of late. The D-Backs started 3-8 after coming into the season expected to be one of the worst teams in baseball, but they’ve now won 10 of their last 15 and have evened things up at 13-13. 

Empire:

The video he’s talking about is actually multiple video clips, which show the interaction from different camera angles. In one of them is a closeup of the foreign substance check.

It captures Bellino feeling MadBum’s hand for the better part of 30 seconds and staring at him. When the umpire finally lets go, Bumgarner says something about how long it took for Bellino to see his hand and begins to walk away, and Bellino promptly ejects him.
