Who won that game

@@bdogwagner428 nobody yet, it's the bottom of the 40th

As an O's fan, I'm surprised they held any team to 0 runs for 12 straight innings. I'll be in my room, crying.

lol oh shit. So bats what happened?

Agreed, horrible look, like why?

Did they look at the previous bad He broke? Was it corked ⁉️

why tf is this so funny? 🤣

Not to be that guy but yea obviously. Well actually no, someone won

@@IsaiahOngFr / Whooooosh

Stupid did you not see not to be that guy.

@@IsaiahOngFr yeah you are that guy though

Final season back with his Reds team just for the fans and he gets ejected and suspended for 7 games. Feelsbadman.

Indeed

Smoking gun there is that, when he initially cracked that 2nd bat, he didn't replace it like most hitters would have. Odd decision, and dumb decision. It absolutely was going to break on contact if used again. Why not just grab a 3rd bat... unless you know the bat is corked and you (foolishly) feel you need the advantage it provides.

@@workingclassrunner bruh if he knew it was a corked bat he woulda switched it out so that exact thing that happened didnt happen, anyone cheating and using a corked bat switches it as soon as they think its gonna break so they dont get caught

@@workingclassrunner boi are you stupid? If he knew it was corked, he wouldnt have hit with it again. Anyone with a brain would know that. He probably didnt replace it because he looked at the bat and didnt notice any major cracks and didnt want to switch bats again. You must not know much about baseball or have ay common sense

Jim McCracken it’s weird cuz if he was trying to cheat wouldn’t he have put the bat back when he broke it the first time

Jim McCracken I’ll play fair. Ok, yes I did just see it. Hey bro ? Cmon, really ? If Santa Clause gave him the bat you’d know sabo was cheating. The bat kid knew it didn’t know. He DID know the bats that sabo told him to give him. 2:30AM typing this AFTER I already accepted n ubereats order. If the customer gets mad for cold food it’s your fault. Don’t you love push alerts though ?

MAH BAWLLS ??? The bat boy grabbed a random bat

MAH BAWLLS Hi

They embody the open mindedness to the infinite number of circumstances when they dont have all of the facts that POLICE officers should have....not an instant finger of guilt pointed at him right then.

Ya because you couldn't tell it was corked the 2nd u pick it up. No way

Oh please. Any pro can tell when they pickup a bat if it is corked. News flash it's a lot lighter. The guy cheated.

I don't think he cheated fr.. he would have switched bats on that foul ball. And no pros can tell the difference if they know. But in heat of the moment, in middle of an at bat. Your nerves are already a lil tense, feeling difference of Ozs is not easy for everyone. Some pros could most definitely tell but not all have that relationship with their bat

As a former batboy, we bring out bats that the players ask for that is 1000% Sabos fault

@@alexvanmeter398 his former bat broke though.. it was unexpected

that's for the fans

Corked bats actually hit the ball LESS distance. #Science

Taekwondo Time So then why would it be cheating if it makes you worse? #Logic

​@@ryleighroberts5770 *Because MLB implemented the rule before anyone conducted any scientific research on it* . They ASSUMED it was an advantage... but now that actual scientists have researched it, it has proven to be no advantage at all. The ball doesn't go as far off a corked bat.

Taekwondo Time huh. The more you know

You have got to be joking pal? Major League hitters know their bats , you're saying to me a batboy gave Chris Sabo a bat and he didn't realize it was his or not his. Give your head a shake he was cheating he got caught.

Curtis Davies if he knew he was cheating he would’ve traded it out after he cracked it the first swing

No

It doesn't matter if it was his bat or not, if he knew it was corked or didn't, if the bat boy gave it to him by mistake he used it in a game that's why he was ejected.

Yeah...and if a frog had wings, it wouldn't bump its ass when it hops!

Nice pfp

Astros

@@IsaiahOngFr the entirety of the astros

So many times, most pitchers use foreign substance at that level, and batters prefer it lol

@@IsaiahOngFr just because the Astros cheated in 2017 doesn’t mean they have been cheating since the start of time, I’m not even an Astros fan

Notice how he looked at the bat before using it. He's checking it for markings that tell him it's corked.

Ianoodin Ok Surprised you know those words Since You’re stuck in the 1700s In Europe.

Begs the question: Why are there ANY corked bats in the ballpark? PERIOD.

@@TheOfficialCzex if it was corked he would've looked back at it when he seen it break

@@mikeuher5054 They use corked bats occasionally during practice to put on a show for the people watching. Sometimes when at home stadium the corked practice bats can get put in with the regular bats. I'm not implying it was a mistake in this instance but it does happen.

Baseball bats should never be corked!!

@@karlricker3291 ok?

Well the part that sucked was the bat boy brought it out and he didn't even know which bat it was until it broke. Surely it was just a bat they were playing around with in BP but at the same time they need to make sure that bat doesn't make it to the dugout for game time

Chris Szabo had his last name misspelled on the back of his jersey

That's because they all knew sabo didn't do it on purpose but still had to eject him

Nice pfp!

@@samuelmcguire6261 they were stealing pitchers signs with a camera, TV or something. They would beat on the bat rack twice to signal the batter of an change up pitch being next.

@@Connor-ix8xb jesus can anyone on the internet spell anymore

So you want a bat to impress during batting practice, how 'bout not using the same color scheme then you don't accidently use the wrong one during a game.

@@joecarr5412 thats a softball bruh

DOH

well the baseball mentality has always been "it's not cheating unless you get caught". I mean I partially blame for the MLB as they never gave out any severe punishments whenever somebody was caught so there were no consequences for cheating but still.

He did ok by career's end, had a World Championship Ring on his finger & was a pretty big reason his team Won it 🤷🏻‍♂️

If he knew it was he would not at all

No he would have due to it being a advantage, next time please use your mind

Anthony Wu poor Jim Leyland had to burn his heaters in the clubhouse hall, I say let em smoke!

Joe Reece Yup. My grandparents never got to see the cubs win the World Series cause they died of lung cancer.

I’m honestly suprised the league lets the players chew on tv

The Reds played “Hit the Road, Jack” a couple years ago when David Ross got kicked out.

At the 9:35 mark you can see his son Paul.

Astonishing to me that Giamatti was a professor first, made a joke about wanting to be the AL president when he was candidate for the presidency of Yale (which he then held for 8 years) before becoming NL president (and eventually Commish) and being present for this absolutely iconic scene (the reference to the Rockwell painting was so accurate, there were so many instances that looked like adult versions of Rockwell's well known baseball illustrations) , as well as being the one to finally throw Pete Rose out of the sport, and the thing that is somehow his most enduring legacy is that he's Paul Giamatti's dad.

Double U, N b Ceee

Oh shit it is him. Just casually smoking lmao.

Nice noticing. How did a baseball kid become such a good actor?

Those sideburns.

They hit harder

@@zakwheeler1 That’s a myth. Research on corked bats pretty conclusively states that corked bats don’t give any real advantage. People used to think that they were an advantage because you can swing a lighter bat faster, but the lack of weight and structural integrity of the bat actually can cause you to lose distance on the ball. MLB banned corked bats before much research was done.

@@Imulletman12 Oh okay

You are very correct when it comes to hitting the ball farther and hitting home runs no one can deny that however in the MLB with pictches as fast as they are a lighter bat may allow you to get a second of a faster swing which allows for more accurate hits so if your goal is to hit more accurately and get on base it will provide a very small advantages

I think it gives you a lighter and faster swing

Hyper Scythe Chris sabo?

Ya

His fault

Yeah, Chris Sabo didn't know the bat was corked, and it wasn't even his bat, but rules are rules. Even if you are in the back seat and did nothing, but your buddy robs a store and you're in the car after wards, you are still guilty of that crime.

He knew the bat was hot. He just thought it wouldn't break.

Both of them?

And realmuto😂

Florida Maddogg Wisconsin stole him

Am from UK don't understand rules, what's up with a substance being on your arm? How is that cheating?

Gareth Belfast one. Usually that substance is something sticky which the pitcher uses to smear on the ball to give it more spin. This is illegal because it gives the pitcher an illegal advantage by making the ball harder to throw.

Chris Z. How does making it harder to throw give him an advantage

WorldIsFilledB sorry, mistype: harder to hit

Gareth Belfast one. Pitchers will attempt to add pine tar, lard, or use some type of item to make the ball heavier on one side to make the ball spin and jump more unpredictably and thus harder to hit. If caught, the player is ejected from the game, all the current balls are replaced and removed from circulation, and the player is subject to a fine and/or suspension.

Nope. Its called small market team

@@kkkkkkkemstar There are small market teams, then there is 100 feet of toxic waste. Then buried under all that, there's the Marlins lol (under Loria)

Yeah he cheated in both of his no hitters and had the audacity to rat out the astros

As a Reds fan, when I heard that I was incredibly ticked off (he threw his most recent no hitter against the Reds)

GREENDAYalltheWAY077 Absolutely does ...with just a DASH of Johnny Knoxville 😆👌🏼

OMG😂😭😂😂🤣🤧

Yeah blowing cancer into people all around how fun! Shut up boomer.

thats because he's on steroids now.

Only 2017

I believe it. Why would you not use a corked bar at first but then somehow signal the batboy to bring you a corked bat and intentionally break your own bat. Doesn’t make sense. Maybe he could tell it was corked and isn’t say anything but he definitely didn’t cheat on purpose

I have a feeling Rick was in on a lot of schinanigens.😂😂

I remember watching Super Bowl X, and seeing Jack Lambert walk to the sidelines and fire one up. The way things are today, it's strange and amusing seeing that lol. (BTW I saw the game live, but when I saw him do that it was on a recording years later).

July 15, 1994 at Comiskey Park, Albert Belle (Indians) was the hitter. Cleveland reliever Jason Grimsley crawled through a drop ceiling into the umpire’s dressing room and switched the bat. Belle was suspended 10 games, which was never fully served due to appeal and the players’ strike.

Sago didn’t know he was using a corked bat

@@domerthekid6010 I agree. It looked to be one of the two guys at the end of the bench he said something to when he was walking away at the end.
