The Houston Astros have been accused of stealing signs from opposing teams. The stealing is mainly to find out what sort of pitch is coming next to an Astros batter. The methods aren't traditional, including banging on garbage cans, and there have been a lot of comments made about it. This story from the Associated Press includes some amusing barbs about it and Astros star player Jose Altuve's partial tattoo.
Today's print edition of the Cleveland Plain Dealer had much the same article but a different title -- Sign stealers have rights, too, you know. š
Here is a Plain Dealer article dated last month about the scandal that draws a fine line between cheating and gamesmanship in baseball. It includes humor, too.
