I can’t back it up, but I’m quite sure that the Tampa Bay Rays are cheating. Not cheating during games like the Houston Astros were doing in 2017, though. The Rays have taken a different route in the trickery, and somebody needs to get to the bottom of it.

That’s right, they’ve got nine right-handed hitters to smack grounders at the Red Sox shortstop in between home run swings.
