New York Mets legend Darryl Strawberry is skeptical of the juiced-balls theory

There’s a new theory going around in Major League Baseball about the league juicing the baseballs. Some pitchers, Justin Verlander of the Detroit Tigers, believe the league is tweaking the balls to increase the number of home runs hit.

However, there are some players that don’t believe it at all. They either see no change in the baseballs or just don’t believe the league would do something like that. One of these players is retired New York Mets and New York Yankees right fielder Darryl Strawberry.

“I wouldn’t know, because I’m not hitting,” Strawberry told Fox Business.
