When you tell the truth, you don't have to keep changing your story. That's the beauty of telling the truth and the changing story is a tell tale sign of lying.

Oh my. Where have the Biblical values in the game of baseball gone? Why in the old days, the players were paragons of virtue, and nobody ever dreamed of playing a ruse. Oh. Except for Ty Cobb. And Louis Tiant. And Phil Niekro. And . . . But those guys were just a few thousand bad apples. The rest of the players were ordained ministers on the side. That's a fact.

(You really need learn a little about baseball. As Yogi said "Baseball is 90 percent mental. The other half is physical.")

Cheating is not part of the game. From juice to emery boards, to loaded bates to pine tar.

Since this magic dirt was on his hands in every game he has played post season, we should then see this magic dirt return if there is nothing illegal about it.

We all know how "superstitious" ball players are. They don't like to change their routine.
