The saga that Toronto Blue Jays commentators created by suspecting Aaron Judge of cheating as he looked towards the New York Yankees dugout during his at-bat in Monday’s game has not finished. talk.
Now it’s Chicago White Sox pitcher Lance Lynn’s turn to get involved.
During his appearance on former catcher AJ Pierzynski’s ‘Foul Territory’ podcast, he was asked about the incident earlier in the week.
The only way to stop him is to throw one in the ribs, I think. Unfortunately, everything has changed in the game. If a guy is on base and he sees your catch, it’s your fault. But when players who aren’t on the pitch or coaches who aren’t playing are involved, that’s when I think it’s too much.
Obviously, Lynn doesn’t know her rule book well, but is that really surprising?
Where it becomes illegal is if the signals are communicated electronically, as the Houston Astros have done in the past. That’s clearly not the case in this situation, especially not in an away game.
Perhaps Lynn should focus on his blistering 6.66 ERA and 1.519 WHIP, not to mention his team’s superb performance so far this campaign (sarcasm alert here)…
But force is to believe that it is not in its priorities.
