3 Astros things: Cardinals hacker sentencing hearing delayed
Chris Correa will have to wait a little longer to find out how long he'll be in prison for the Astros-Cardinals hack.
One of the looming storylines from the 2015 Astros was the Ground Control hacking case. Former St. Louis Cardinals scouting director Chris Correa pled guilty to five counts of computer hacking and repeated access to the Astros database "Ground Control" in January.
The process of sentencing Correa saw another delay on Monday -- as reported by Robert Patrick of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. U.S. District Judge Lynn N. Hughes has pushed the hearing back to July 5. Before that, Correa will receive a brief order by May 31 that will detail federal sentencing guidelines.
