2 out of 3 teams they played in the postseason were in the northeast at parks designed for LH hitters while the Astros played their home games in a RH friendly park in room temperature.

so Astros didn't cheat? Or they cheated without any advantage to it just because? What is it?

How do you think all this started? Why was the memo sent out telling teams to stop?

Only Astros fans are spinning that as a Yankees issue. Trust me, the media would be all over it. The one thing we know without question is the Astros cheated. That's not crying fans making stories up. That's proven fact.

We know Boston and New York both cheated. Both were fined. Then the memo. Only difference between the Astros and the Yankees and red Sox is that the Astros got busted after.

I remember when we were kids and my siblings and I always pointed at each other when we got in trouble. We grew up.

You even know what the Yankees did? A bullpen coach called the dugout to ask if the previous pitch was a ball or strike and they got fined for inappropriate use of the dugout phone.

Let's not compare ok?

I have no problem owning it. Stros cheated. We deserved to be punished. It's just the insufferable holier-than-thou attitude of this board that pisses me off

Yankees scored three runs in four ALCS losses. You go 0-4 in that scenario most of the time. To my knowledge (OK, the fact I have common sense), the sign-stealing was not carried out by Astros pitching. Bring on the spitball, different ball theories. Yankees need another excuse for scoring theee runs in four losses.
