    Pretty Obvious That Pitchers Are Doctoring Balls

    If you watch enough MLB it's like an epidemic. How many times do the pitchers need to touch their hat brim, or run their hand across their forehead. Not to mention from the right camera angle you can see the stains on the brim of the cap. These fukers are defimitely adding a little something for movement onto the balls.

    Guy from Tampa got caught out earlier in the year, but pretty sure most of them are doing it.

    I remember watching a video a while back where the entire front portion of the pitcher's brim was dampened and he would "adjust" his cap and grab hold of the damp brim. Pretty crafty.

    Why do you think the umpires switch the balls out so often?
