Verlander showing Framber his tricks pre-game.

So Buster olney is the whiny beech tattletale he's been his entire life.

Sweat and rosin is legal.

Yes but who said it was rosin?

---

can you prove otherwise?

Here's the list of left-handed pitchers who posted a sub-1.50 ERA and struck out 24+ batters in a single-postseason:

Sandy Koufax: 1965
Sterling Hitchcock: 1998
Madison Bumgarner: 2014
Andrew Miller: 2016
Julio Urías: 2020
Framber Valdez: 2022@PitchingNinja #Astros pic.twitter.com/ncviA8DJtH

Regardless if you think Framber Valdez was cheating last night, the consequence should be forfeiture of the game. Fines or individual suspensions won’t make players knock it off. Losing games on the other hand, especially in the playoffs, would. https://t.co/4NVS1cUhxC

So because you think someone cheated, a win should immediately become a loss and the other team should just get a win? This is some dodger fan thinking... Weak

You must be new here...

Well I think they hacked our pitch com system and got pitches from jv, just look at how many good pitches they spoiled in the 4th and 5th……

Regardless of if you agree or not, they should vacate that win

Ok, I claim the Phillies cheated in Game 1. Now the series is back to 1-1. Also, I'm going to go ahead and pre-emptively claim the Phillies cheat in Game 3, 4, and 5. It's the only way to explain their home record in the playoffs. So, now we win the series. No need to even play the games.

Not sure I understand how he called 100% accurate but 4 called balls inside EUZ & 1 called strikes outside EUZ….

I mean if he was 100% accurate, wouldn't that mean his zone was the real zone and he was also 100% consistent by default?

He did a good job and did not let the big moments impact his zone. They should let him have the plate the rest of the series.

Framber Valdez's father overcame his fear of flying to come from the Dominican Republic to Houston to see his son pitch in one of the biggest games of his life in the World Series.

“I knew he was going to get the job done," Valdez's father said.https://t.co/V0ogf0VZSN

I'm convinced. Baseball is full of the most whiney ***** fans in all of sports. Bunch of babies after getting dominated.

At least the Yankees finally got the hell over it and blamed their own team. But between Seattle and Philly, holy crap. Bunch of adults needing diaper changes

If this was a Chandler Rome tweet it would say "Plane carrying Framber Valdez's dad does not crash in ocean."

Yep, how else do you explain that Bonds, Clemens, Rose... are not in the hall

Ridiculous sanctimonious writers and fans

Valdez is a really good pitcher. However…

switching gloves
changing cleats
rubbing palm
always wiping hands on hair, pants as he leaves mound

Strange things impossible not to notice. Not saying anything, but asking, WTH is going on?

I'm not trying to suggest anything here, I promise, but I don't think I've ever seen a pitcher change their glove without a malfunction, or change their shoes -- let alone both like Framber Valdez has -- in the middle of a start. Let alone a start in the World Series.

Paranoia: " I'm not trying to suggest anything, so let me clearly suggest something"

Lmao. Reading the replies of that thread…..Phillies fans are pathetic and idiots. "They only checked his left hand!" You mean the hand that grips the ball?!?! "He was holding his glove up to his ear as if he was listening to something!" Yeah, he was.

So now we can't even win a World Series game without the the children crying!?!

This is why I have and will always fully celebrate the 2017 Championship.

We just humiliatingly swept the organization that MLB/media has proven time and time again it will defend/protect, so I'm not surprised to see an influx of cheating "hints" now that we've had some success in the WS. They know that an Astros WS win this year validates our entire run (including the 17 championship), so they're going to cloud it with as much suspicion as possible.

Framber looked the same last night as he has all year. His spin didn't tick up to any material extent. The umps govern sticky stuff usage now anyway.

The good news is that I think we thrive on it, like we did after the Tepara comments in the ALDS last year.

the Phillies are 21-9 in the postseason at Citizens Bank Park

that .700 win pct currently stands as the best home record in the postseason for any team in any park (min 20 games), ahead of:

Mets at Shea Stadium: .667, 26-13
Cardinals at Busch Stadium II: .660, 35-18

— Sarah Langs (@SlangsOnSports) October 30, 2022

Hope we can change that

speaking of cheating, when was the last time schwarber pissed in a cup.

"Not saying anything…"

You are saying something you weasel. You are insinuating cheating. Innuendo. Have some balls and say it. Swine.

Bunch if whining babies. Obnoxious foul mouthed fans that suck their thumbs and cry when they lose. Beating them in Philly will be glorious.
