There is no crying in baseball, but there is certainly justice. That, however, comes with a caveat of just what is justice in baseball? There are two levels in play and that is the infamous “unwritten rules” that have existed since the game began. The other is the justice that is dispensed by authorities that have been placed as responsible adults in charge of on – and occasionally – off field activities.
The highest level is baseball’s version of the Supreme Court and that is the imperial title of Commissioner of Baseball. Virtually all disciplinary decisions eventually migrate to his office and are reviewed by various minions until a fateful decision is rendered and punishment decreed for the offenders.
