Guy who whined about the Orioles stealing his signs wins AL Cy Young Award

On September 10, 2021, the Orioles beat the Blue Jays, 6-3. In the game, they scored three runs off of Jays pitcher Robbie Ray, who was lifted from the game with just 4.1 innings pitched and three runs allowed on eight hits and two walks. During the game, Ray got into a shouting match with manager Brandon Hyde, and after the game, he hinted that the Orioles were stealing signs.

More than two months later, it remains absurd: A pitcher claimed the Orioles, who in the 2021 season batted a combined .239/.304/.402, were stealing his signs.
