Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Major League Baseball investigated the team after the 2018 season on allegations of sign stealing but "came up with nothing."
Roberts denied any allegations of past cheating, saying the Dodgers' sign stealing was done only by legal methods, such as signaling a sign to a hitter from the basepaths.
"That's the school of baseball," Roberts told Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times. "That's gamesmanship. There was never anything illegal about it."
Sign stealing has been an increasingly controversial topic across baseball since an MLB investigation uncovered the Houston Astros used technology to steal signs during their 2017 World Series championship.
