They check a pitcher coming on to the field, nothing found, and they check him again going off the field. How did the pitcher get the the stuff?

You don't want to know where they hide the sticky stuff these days.

I might have had a little stuff on the inside of my belt on cold days from time to time.

Bullfrog Sunscreen and rosin can make your fingers very tacky. You put the sunscreen on your forearm prior to entering the game, have a routine to rosin your hand then wipe it on your forearm as to not be blatantly obvious, look ritual. We all know pitchers are psychotic and superstitious, so....

I think they should allow pitchers to use a tacky substance to counter the SWAT like Armour they allow batters to come to the plate with along with pine tar for a better grip. They've completely allowed a third of the plate to be taken away from pitchers because hitters no longer fear being nailed.

Getting some extra movement out of the ball always makes me think of this Greg Maddox video. He essentially throws something unhittable with just a scuff on the ball.
