Stoked about the Red Sox.

I also understand all the Houston hate. Howevvvver....you're being incredibly naïve if you think they were the only ones doing stuff like this

only ones caught. I'm sure most teams do this.

I had a guy on 2nd when I was playing trying to give me signs. Told him not to do it, half the time he was wrong as hell and I'd look foolish as fuck up there swinging at a 85 MPH fastball when in all actuality it was a 65 MPH curveball.

I am pretty positive the MLB guys are much better at stealing signs than some random HS kid thinking he is much better than he was.

Sox are slam happy!

[GeorgesGoons]

Has Houston replaced the Yankees as the most hated team outside their fan base? As a White Sox fan I'd normally root for the AL team but I hope Houston gets swept

Go Braves!!

Worst slide I have ever witnessed! John Kruk would have had a better slide

Pablo Sandoval has now won more #WorldSeries rings (4) than Mike Trout has postseason games played (3).

Good job Braves. Fuck the Astros

Good job Braves. Fuck the Astros

I second this!

The cheating thing sucked (I know they probably weren’t the only ones) but it was their attitudes and bullshit excuse making and all the awful interviews that really made me hate that group

Why was Joc Pederson wearing his grandma's pearls last night?!?

[Whittness10]

That picture isn't even from last night

[Cnasty]

I was at a Client dinner last night and one of the ladies had on a big Pearl necklace with a Braves logo and she is from Georgia.

She went into the why and there really isn’t a story it just stuck as one of those superstitious things.

From Pederson and his team mates:

What’s up with the pearls?’’ Atlanta third baseman Austin Riley said. “Everyone wanted to know. I had so many people ask me that. We were all asking each other that.

“No one knew.’’ …

“Guys had to find out, and you know what, we still don’t know,’’ Riley said. “I don’t know. It’s Joc. There’s no rhyme or reason.

“He told us he just woke up one day and said, ‘Hey, let’s try this pearl necklace.’

“And that was that.’’

Doesn't matter.

[Whittness10]

Doesn't matter.

Okay George

Okay George

I just thought it was weird that he is wearing Jackie O's pearls

Braves finally did it again in my lifetime. Was sweet

Stealing signs are a part of unwritten rules. What the astros did was way different. If I have a runner on second and the catcher is dumb enough to be doing one finger signs. Steal them signs.

If catcher is weak and not hiding them well. Steal em.


We will have players watching coaches from dugouts calling pitches and trying to figure out signs.


Flip side. You get caught. Expect high and tight or a ball in the rib cage.

Too me that’s fair game. Astros using cameras and nerds in stands is cheating.
