Mr. Sinister Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 (edited) I hope they did cheat. Can you imagine cheating on a stage like that and still losing? 😂 I'd feel awful. Edited November 12, 2019 by Mr. Sinister 1 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mammajamma Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 weren't the yankees making a big fuss about this in the ALCS? Wouldnt be surprised if they were still doing it. Funny thing is they lost every home game against us (where they couldve used the cameras, etc). so maybe the nats got tipped off and made adjustments, and the astros couldnt hit without cheating ha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcl05 Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 People who start cheating don't stop until they get caught. 100% they were trying this crap. Astros are so, so easy to hate. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 2018, the Cleveland Indians and Boston Red Sox found an Astros employee taking pictures near their dugouts. In the 2019 ALCS, the Yankees accused the Astros of stealing signs. According to Andy Martino of SNY, the Yankees believed that they busted the Astros making coded whistling sounds from their dugout to let their hitters know what pitches were coming in the series opener. Both 2018 and 2019 apparently. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bearrock Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 r/baseball is hilarious right now. Red Sox, Dodgers, Yankees, Indians fans banding together in an uncomfortable alliance to dump on the Astros then remembering they hate each other so they go back to backbiting each other.😂 Only thing everyone seems to agree on is that they're glad that the Nats won, lol. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barry.Randolphe Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 Has anyone posted video evidence of them doing it during the Yankees or Nats series? I saw the one from 2017 and it was clearly obvious what they were doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the Nationals also used a complex series of signs they've never used before, knowing the Astros are cheating douchebags. In game 4 of the NLDS, Strasburg got hit hard early. Davey came out to talk to the umps and was pointing at *something* in the outfield. Strasburg adjusted... but the mysterious thing Davey was pointing at still has me wondering if the Dodgers were using a camera to steal signs too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riggo#44 Posted November 13, 2019 Author Share Posted November 13, 2019 There is something rotten in the state of Texas. Osuna, Taubman, Nolan Ryan's exit after his son was replaced with the owner's son, now this? I hope MLB comes down on them hard. And yeah, I kinda want them to be cheating this year too. Nationals are already heroes of baseball--this will cement their story. And Craig Counsell nails the MoY Award: 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bearrock Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 Love that quote from Counsell. And I'm sure plenty of other managers are the same way, but he came to our locker room after the wildcard game to congratulate Davey. I thought that was really classy of him. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bearrock Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 You know what? I laughed when I first saw @CRobi21's post. Then saw the video and was like "ffs...." Then I scrolled down and now I'm laughing again! I still think I need to watch some 2019 highlights for about an hour. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
