Legendary New York Yankee Derek Jeter calls Astros’ sign-stealing a ‘black eye for the sport’

This past MLB offseason, the sports world witnessed arguably the largest scandal in recent memory. After an investigation — which came after a bombshell report from Ken Rosenthal and Evan Drellich of The Athletic — MLB found the Houston Astros guilty of sign-stealing. The ballclub took part in the act during the 2017 and 2018 campaigns, with the former season ending in them winning the World Series.

Since the scandal’s publication, those in and around the sport have come together to offer comments. One of the latest to do so is legendary New York Yankees shortstop and current Miami Marlins CEO Derek Jeter.
