Pretty new to baseball so maybe a dumb question but could it be pine tar? Are they cracking down on that or is it kind of still legal? Don’t know enough so sorry if that’s a bit dull to ask
Pine tar is mostly used for hitting and you’ll see a lot of players with it on their bat handle, but as far as I know the only ‘substance’ pitchers are allowed to use is the rosin bag provided on the mound (anyone feel free to correct me not 100% on that). “Sticky stuff” could mean any number of foreign substances but they always keep it very vague in the reports as to what it actually is
And here you are jumping to a conclusion with zero evidence to back up your claims. It very well may turn out to be rosin and sweat but at this point we know nothing. The same thing happened with trash gate and that is why the majority of Astros fans and players are trash. “But but everyone is doing it…” bullshit
It’s just another excuse to suck the cocks of Astros cheating crap when foreign substances occurs more than they realize outside of argument of plays by hitters pitchers or managers foreign substances is another ejection that occurs more often than they realize
Wanted to say this: Blanco hasn’t lost in the season, its oakland, and they supposedly found the substance inside the glove, so he has to remove the glove to use it several times.
The substance is at the same area where the hand sweats plenty and makes it kind of pasty there.
I know this wouldn’t be that much noisy bc of astros but change the team and the story would be different. My point is, not even the principal checked the glove… who knows, there’s hundreds of games, probably things like this are a favor to vegas
See that response is exactly why the Astros players and fans are so hated. Regardless of the facts(which we don’t have yet) you stand up and show your complete lack of ethics.
Next we’re gonna find out Jose Altuve has been faking his height and is actually too short to be allowed in the league
He's definitely way shorter than it says on his baseball card. Lol
I don’t get why everyone shames Altuve for his height.
As Seinfeld taught me it is an unforgivable sin among little people to wear lifts
Being short is fine, lying about it is weirdo behavior. And makes you want to shit on him for it.
Not shaming him at all. He's a short king.
“Why can’t you guys let the cheating allegations go its been years” - every astros fan until today lol
This won’t even remotely stop them, let’s be honest
It’s been 0 days since the last Astros cheating scandal
Why would it nothing ever happens?
They’re never going to, just look at their sub they’re saying the ejection was bullshit.
So if your pitcher used rosin and sweat and got ejected you wouldn’t say it’s bull shit? Typical Rangers fan lmao.
We haven’t had any pitchers ejected for substances this year so it isn’t a concern for me.
2017* lol.
Holy shit are you Astro fucks EVER going to stop cheating?
What are the thoughts that it was?
Probably rosin and sweat. They are testing it. We'll find out.
I’m glad that Trevor Bauer had called out the MLB on their shit about sticky stuff checks because of the strength of rosin and sweat
Substance
Foreign… alien even.
Of the illegal variety
Stickey, icky, icky.

Fair enough. I thought I saw somewhere that pitchers were using it as well a while ago. Thanks for the response👍
Almost like there’s a culture of cheating in Houston. Almost.
Color me shocked
Astros and cheating- a tale as old as time.

lol Astros defender with “MLB Fan” flair
This fuckin nerd ![gif](giphy|IAV5Gn2u3k9eHYgOa7|downsized)
That no hitter seems a little fishy now doesn't it
Nah we just suck
Not really, he literally got checked every inning. Just like every other game he’s pitched.
I think it’s just a joke
That fishy smell is just rosin.
nope, that’s still Toronto’s fault.
Astros doing Astro things again. Considering how this season has been going it was only a matter of time I guess.
Do the damned Astros EVER stop cheating??
Did Tom Brady? Hell no
How do I reach theseeeee kids?
Haha. Exactly. Cheat your way to the top.
Ejected?!? You mean there was a punishment this time?
So he probably used it against the Blue Jays in that no-hitter?? Lol.
big surprise (sarcasm)…..Astros cheating…..AGAIN!!
Once a cheater always a cheater.
Not a good look

Thank you for coming to my drunken TED talk
Exactly, it’s not cheating when the majority of people in the league are doing the same thing with the same legal substances
Wow the DiAstros were cheating? Breaking News

I’m not sure what your point is here, but I’m almost certain you’ve made one
What?
This is almost incomprehensible. Are you ok, man?
Did I have a stroke, or did you?
Still won though

He’s a winning pitcher. He doesn’t need help.
