As an Ms fan I have very little stake in any World Series (as long as the Yankees lose) but as a sports fan I love a good story and goddamn does this Nats win make a good story.
"Astros using cameras to steal signs, a breakdown"
*video showing that breakdown*
Shows the speed at which the sign is being seen, reported, and announced to the batter (by an audible banging from the dugout), and concludes that the reporting of stealing the signs almost certainly has to be using technology to do so.
Yeah, I'm pretty much fed up with this ownership and front office. They seem determined to be as skeevy as possible. I hope MLB forces Crane to sell the team for this.
That said, I wouldn't be surprised if the Astros aren't the only team doing this--I'm more surprised that they were this blatant and didn't get caught before, honestly. But it seems pretty difficult to prevent teams from doing things like this in an age of near-invisible cameras, smartwatches, and so on. MLB should probably just let the battery have earpieces or some other secure electronic communication system so they don't have to use signs. Maybe have their own secure system and have the umps distribute it at first pitch and take it away after the game.
My zombie survival life simulator They Don't Sleep is out now on Steam if you want to check it out.

They aren't, other teams like texas are also suspected of this. Its just that obviously the astros are the one people focus on because of the world series win and recent trip.
I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.

Well here is some drama.

Here's a tweet from Jomboy, a blogger/tweeter who has gained significant reputation for analysis of things baseball throughout the season.

Edit: Oops, had it backwards.
That was vice versa, the Cardinals hacked into the Astros' personnel database.

Astros deserve an asterisk on their 2017 WS win. That's absurd.
I hope every free agent gives Houston a wide berth this off season. I hope they tank next year.
Goddamn
