From the LA Times Online:

Mota said he was about halfway through his warm-ups when the umpire crew chief came over from third and took the ball from his hand.

"Joe West took the ball and threw it to second base," Mota said. "He said I had enough warm-ups in the bullpen."

That set off both Mota and Milwaukee Manager Ned Yost, but it didn't make them nearly as angry as what happened next.

I know, I don't understand why Mota and Yost were so upset either, it is clearly in the rules.

Disclaimer: I know OP was taking about West
