Chicago White Sox catcher Yasmani Grandal is working to find a balance between being aggressive in framing pitches and avoiding catcher’s interference: ‘Yaz has no fear back there’

“There’s been a lot of catcher’s interference in the past month, more than I can remember,” Grandal said during a conference call Friday. “And it’s around the league. I don’t know if it’s a matter of us as a whole group, a major-league group of catchers who are trying to do the same thing and hitters adapting to it and maybe taking bad swings and getting us?

Grandal has been called for catcher’s interference three times this season, including twice Tuesday in a 8-5 victory against the Indians at Progressive Field in Cleveland.

“I usually get one a year,” Grandal said.
