This is from the ESPN news desk. Facts are FACTS. He is a cheat.
A bunch of sour grapes. The article does not conclude he cheated. The facts do not support that he did. You would have to beleive the umpires are lying and covered up for Rogers.

The article concluded that dirt seems to attach to the same spot of his throwing hand before every playoff game he pitched. The umps had nothing to dismiss him for because he "washed" off this sticky dirt that he never noticed on his hand in the first inning.
There is NO WAY a MLB pitcher will wash his throwing hand after a great first inning in 30 degree temps. Not gonna happen unless forced to.
The Umps saw and examined the subtance on his hand, concluded it was dirt and told him to wash it off.
LOL. "Sticky" dirt? So you shook hands with Rogers after the first inning?
Ever tried to "wash off" pine tar? I suppose Rogers could have dunked his hands in gasoline after the first inning, but it seems unlikely.
Looks like Rogers got into the Cardinals heads - and yours. Funny how that still seems to work after more than a hundred years.
