MLB Cheaters Caught Cheating

[@citizenx3508]

Brett screwed Brett.

[@Dustin_Platt]

I remember when MLB pitchers didn't have to get a TSA screening every inning. Dang I'm getting old.

[@hairisoverrated]

🤣🤣🤣

[@toxicmoldmedia]

they didnt have the muscle or dynamics to get such a spin rate like they do today.

[@papalog08]

Sosa was a juicer, corked his bat, and still never had the most HRs or a WS win. It’s almost disappointing he could cheat that much and still fail.

[@SuperVillainBen]

George Brett didn't cheat.

[@keithmartin9603]

No he didn’t , he actually got credit for the home run after appeal.

[@johnleos1687]

That's not what his wife said! 😲🤣😃😂😡🤨

[@Skeezle1986]

Ugh yeah he did cheat. The pine tar on the bat cannot exceed the handle past the meat of the bat that's why they measured it at home plate it cannot exceed from the handle to the end of home plate. WHICH IT ABSOLUTELY did.

[@keithmartin9603]

In a similar situation as the 1975 game, Royals’ batter George Brett was called out for having more than 18 inches of pine tar on his bat - after hitting a game-winning home run. The Royals protested to the MLB, and this time, the appeal was recognized. The obscure pine tar rule was revisited, and the MLB added a provision, in the form of a note, on Rule 3.02(c). It stated that a batter can’t be called out for a pine-tarred bat if the player has already used the bat during that game.

[@keithmartin9603]

Baseball clubs were going through a lot of baseballs, having to toss them out every time they were discolored by pine tar during batting practice and live games. To help prevent teams from losing so many baseballs and wasting money, the Playing Rules Committee added the rule about pine tar in 1955.

As they say in Dhar Mann's videos, "if you cheat, you'll never get ahead".

[@YaBoi-ne6zs]

DHAR MANN AAAAAHHHHH

[@theCoolcatrich]

Why did George Brett run out there like a madman. 🤣

[@matth9788]

Because he wasn't cheating

[@keithmartin9603]

They called him out because the pine tar exceeded 18 inches on the barrel of the bat. The league ended up reversing the decision because pine tar did not give him any advantage as far as how far a ball would travel, and giving him credit for the home run and resuming the game at a later date…. He was ejected for his actions after the out call and he remained ejected when they resumed the game.

[@muniz27]

He had a clear shot at the umpire but of course he started acting like he was gonna do something until someone restrained him... 😒 Pus

[@Skeezle1986]

Steroids. And e got busted cheating.

[@normanburns-ko4ro]

Most all pitchers do it at least once in a while. But once you get caught they watch you from then on.

[@theivory1]

Two out of every three are Yankees. No wonder they have the most world series wins.

[@Skeezle1986]

They are the worst of the worst for the dirties MLB teams in history that's no doubt. Juicers, corked bats, wife beaters, just all around slimy people. It is truly shocking that someone the caliber of Derek Jeter played his entire career at such a sewer dump of a locker room. If nothing else Jeter's super hero is his ability to "Turn a Blind Eye". That's for damn sure. It's legendary

[@achabotte]

The first bat one was supposedly an accident. The batter cracked it on the pitch before saw/felt the crack and still used it, which is when it shattered. Allegedly he didn't know it was bored/corked or whatever and that it was a training bat that got mixed in. he was still booted but was an accident. Why would he crack the bat on the pitch before, knowing it was illegal, and risk it shattering and exposing the bat on the next pitch?

[@moonscar119]

Lip reading you can clearly see him joking "they gave me the wrong bat" as he walks out of the game lol

[@ByTheSpirit84]

@@moonscar119 I don't buy it... Those guys handle those bats so much he'd have noticed a difference in the weight/feel. That's the same excuse (slight variation rather) that Sammy Sosa gave when he got caught using a corked bat.

[@gb1706]

The Brett bat thing was BS.

[@Carroll-dude]

Yet Pete Rose is banned for life for betting yet these £u€kees are just tossed out of a game after caught cheating.

[@bostoncityofchampions6581]

Between the rampaging steroid use, the pine tar, the stick-em, the Gorilla Glue, etc., the Yankees are shadier than a 100 foot tall Elm tree.

[@ByTheSpirit84]

I'm sorry, but Chris Sabo is an idiot for continuing an at bat with a broken corked bat. Dude should have switched that thing out, or better yet not used it at all. It clearly didn't help him out much.

[@Skeezle1986]

He knew that bat was corked. You can feel the difference is lighter. He knew he either didn't care or was just to stupid

[@daBEAGLE1017]

Brett didnt cheat.

[@Skeezle1986]

The pine tar cannot cover more then 18inches between the handle and the meat part of the bat. That's why they measured it at home plate.. Home plate is 18inches across. The tar was WELL past that. Yes he did cheat.

[@AkaiSuisei1776]

@@Skeezle1986he appealed and was found not guilty of cheating

[@Skeezle1986]

@@AkaiSuisei1776 yes yes yes. We all know it was appealed. The wording was extremely complicated which is why he was found not guilty. But that's also why at the end of the season they fixed it so that it was simply put in the rules. He was guilty we all know it. So do you. He just got lucky and found a loophole and was able to worm out of it. But if you really think he wasn't guilty then Michael Pineda the Yankees pitcher in the video should be as well.

[@AkaiSuisei1776]

@@Skeezle1986 I despise the yankees for numerous pitchers getting "lucky" when they were caught with sticky stuff, but if the MLB doesn't word their rules properly, then it isn't cheating.

[@aaronaguilar9172]

2:16 brett didn’t cheat, the league investigated the bat and confirmed it was a legal bat. the game was resumed 3 weeks later and the royals ended up winning. pine tar doesn’t even give hitters an advantage, it doesn’t make the ball go farther, it helps you get a better grip on the bat

[@Skeezle1986]

It acts like a sling shot. The ball sticks to the bat a little bit longer thus letting you transfer more force to it. Which makes it fly further. Nice try. By your logic Micheal Pineda didn't cheat either cause pine tar actually doesn't make the ball spin more like a spit ball or anything of the sort. It just lets him grip it better. No they both are cheaters but they should be banned period

[@johnleos1687]

I cheated on my EX girlfriend better than that! 😲😂😡🤣🤨🇺🇸

sammy sosa, the double cheat (triple if you count him forgetting English).
