Aside from my own baseball exploits, I typically don’t bother writing about baseball here, even if it is my own personal brog. I have actual people in which I can blab about baseball with when I want to, so I don’t always feel the need to write about it anymore.
But for whatever reason, I felt compelled to write about Yankees pitcher Michael Pineda, who tonight was caught with pinetar smeared on his neck, and was subsequently ejected from the game. Long story short, this is perceived as an act of cheating, because pinetar is sticky, and having pinetar on your fingers gives you superior grip of a baseball, and when you have superior pitch of a baseball, you can make it do extraordinary things when thrown.
