News about Evan Gattis

Evan Gattis, the current Houston Astros catcher, became the first member of the 2017 World Champions to admit to the club's legendary sign-stealing policy in a tumultuous tweetstorm that touched on everything from racism to performance-enhancing drugs. 'I personally was a proponent of the idea at the time,' wrote Gattis, a 36-year-old whose career came to an end in 2018.' Major League Baseball reported the results of an investigation into the existence of a sign-stealing device in 2017 that enabled the Astros dugout to intercept and decipher hand signals between opposing pitchers and catchers before relaying the information to Houston hitters in the batters box.
