I heard one of the pitchers had something on his hand tonight? Which one and what was it all about?

The cameras during the first inning caught some discoloration on Kenny Rogers pitching hand. It "appeared" (and it did) to be pine tar, but no one is saying anything during the game. Maybe they will discuss it afterwards in the postgame interviews. But he was made to wash it off to remove any appearance of impropriety.

Kenny Rodgers of the Detroit Tigers had Pine Tar on his pitching hand. Pitchers can't have anyting on their pitching hand. Only batters and fielsers are allowrd to use it but rodgers had it on his hand in the 1st and took it off before the 2nd. LaRussa Cardinals manager caught him but he did not have it on his hand at the time.

the pine tar was noticed by the umpiring crew manager not tony la russa, it wasnt just dicoloration but textured, so it was pine tar for all of you tigers fans, im a cards fan and a tigers fan so im not bias, the umps did what they should have and just make him wash it off like they did in the past, rogers pitched a good game throughout but i could have been different, who knows and who cares, cards have 5 more games to play

He did not have pinetar on his hand you idiots! If it had been determined to be pinetar, he would have been thrown out of the game.
