Scherzer checked 3 times before the 5th inning....."I got nothing!"

Great headline in WaPo about this:

Mike Rizzo calls Joe Girardi a ‘con artist’ after Max Scherzer sticky stuff check

He probably called him a "con artist" because WaPo wouldn't publish.....

"Mike Rizzo calls Joe Girardi an "ass clown" after Max Scherzer sticky stuff check"

Does anyone really want to see two mid sixties guys brawl?

Awesome video.

Question for the pitching experts out there...does it have to be the pitcher who has the substance?  In other words, could the catcher apply something before throwing the ball back?  Maybe thirdbaseman after they throw the ball around?

So here’s something I’ve been pondering, a stud P on my sons summer team uses spider tack. He will also pitch against my sons HS team in the spring. Would you alert the HS coach to have the kid checked? There are 4 other kids from my sons HS on the summer team

Would I?

As a parent, I’d be extremely embarrassed if I got involved in my kid’s activities like that!!!

Girardi was using the situation to throw off Scherzer.  MLB should have thought twice about the consequences, which will be losing business, should have put a stop to it years ago.  It's painful enough watching without this garbage.

You don't have to check a guy every inning.  Girardi IS an ass clown.

Let the kids alert the coaches.
