This won’t go over well with Yankees.
MLB’s lengthy probe into the Astros’ sign-stealing scandal revealed Monday that Houston electronically stole signs not only during the 2017 regular season — as initially reported by The Athletic — but also during those playoffs, when the Astros defeated the Yankees in seven games during the ALCS, en route to winning the World Series.
Commissioner Rob Manfed suspended Astros manager AJ Hinch and GM Jeff Luhnow for one season, and Houston fired both shortly thereafter; however, there are no plans to vacate the Astros’ World Series title, as many baseball fans on social media have clamored for.
