Trevor Bauer gives batter the pitch sign himself on the mount-leaves no doubt

quote:

Trevor Bauer would flick his glove up (palm-side down) when a fastball was coming and flick his glove down (palm-side up) when it was going to be a curveball. All Dodger Matt Beaty, a first baseman, had to do was wait.

Beaty lined out to centerfield in the fourth inning, Cincinnati.com reported. But the message by Bauer-- an outspoken critic of the Houston Astros sign-stealing controversy-- was clear.

This guy was on Real Sports last week. Great feature on his approach to pitching & how he views the world. While he is certainly NOT the best pitcher to ever play the game, he has 100% bucked all conventional coaching tactics as it pertains to pitcher development, conditioning, & the science of the game.

I will also add that it was awesome hearing Rizzo ask for a trash can bang during his mic’d up AB’s yesterday.

Maybe leave the MORE SPORTS MESSAGE BOARD if you dont want to hear about it. Stop being a bitch about it. Its gonna be all season, so get used to it.

They shouldn't have cheated. Cheating cheaters. That being said Bauer is a strange dude, but he's on my Reds , so he's our weirdo.

The HBO real sports on him was interesting. He’s a different cat. Calls himself a nerd and doesn’t like conventional coaching.

Between 420.69 and BD911, Bauer has found his niche as a troll on the mound.

I’ll never forget Bauer dicing LSU in the NCAA tourney out in LA. Was not a pleasant experience

Same. Been a big fan ever since

A lot of people thought LSU dodged a bullet because they threw Gerrit Cole against the 4 seed. Turned out that Bauer was actually the better pitcher in college.
