    Great now we have to listen to 6 months of Cardinals whining about this and the correction to the umpires call.

    Funny thing though as Kozma got the benefit of the infield fly last year and now he is getting torched with errors in WS game 1.
    2015 Attendance 2-1 (4/6, 4/7,4/24)
    2014 Attendance 1-3 (3/31, 4/12, 8/14)
    2013 Attendance: 6-0 (4/3, 4/16, 4/17, 8/3, 8/21, 9/7)

    If it gets them to the World Series every other year, then maybe the Reds should do more whining and less self-congratulating.

    They work on it for 1 hour each day during Spring training. You can really see by June at the latest exactly how much all of that hard work pays off.

    That guy should be called up immediately. He's already an 80 in whining.

    Cardinals scouts probably have an entirely separate column on their grades, just for the Whining Factor.
    2015 Attendance 2-1 (4/6, 4/7,4/24)
    2014 Attendance 1-3 (3/31, 4/12, 8/14)

    Did anyone look at the evidence? Looks pretty obvious to me.

    It looks obvious that something is on his glove in that one single frame screen shot. Impossible to conclude anything beyond that. However, my opinion is that it's far more common than we think for a pitcher to use an aid of some sort.

    It is very blatant across most teams, especially in the summer. Pitchers put sunscreen on their glove hand forearm and use that. Cannot remember who, but one pitcher went so far as to say the hitters are ok with it. Since it gives pitchers more control, fewer batter get HBP.
