Cheating in Baseball

Cheating is as old as baseball (book written by Dan Gutman in 1990)

John McGraw, HOF Manager Hid balls in tall grass in outfield, grab belts of baserunners as 3B, tried to get pitchers to hold ball like 3 Finger Brown (“It’s luck for you fellows that it didn’t work. If I thought it did, I’d have a surgeon out here tomorrow”

Ty Cobb, HOF Outfielder Ty Cobb would sharpen spikes in full view of opposing infielders to intimidate and give him extra advantage.

Stealing Signs

“Shot Heard ‘Round the World” Bobby Thomson off of Ralph Branca at 3:58 PM on October 3, 1951

Thomson Knew?

Herman Franks, NY Giants Coach

Sal Yvars, NY Giants Catcher Franks would buzz the pitch signal to bullpen catcher, Sal Yvars. Yvars would hold a baseball in the air to tell batter a fastball was coming; throw ball in air to indicate off speed pitch. The rest is history.

Comiskey Park Scoreboard Would use Sherm Lollar’s #10 as indicator on scoreboard. If fastball, would wiggle #1. If breaking ball, would wiggle #0.

Bob Buhl, Milwaukee Braves Pitcher In the 1950’s, the Braves would put pitchers Joey Jay and Bob Buhl in the Wrigley bleachers – shirts off, dressed like fans.
