It has been eight years since the Houston Astros cheated their way through a year that included a World Series victory over the Dodgers. It has been five years since commissioner Rob Manfred publicly detailed the scandal and sanctioned the Astros and their leaders, if not their players.
Does A.J. Hinch, the manager of those Astros, still hear about it?
“Every day,” he said.
Hinch now manages the Detroit Tigers.
“As a manager, my name gets announced in every stadium, every night,” he said Friday at Angel Stadium.
