Former MLB player and convicted felon Lenny Dykstra said Tuesday that during his playing career he hired a “team of private investigators” to dig up dirt on umpires that he’d use to intimidate them into calling fewer strikes against him.
“I just pulled a half-million bucks out and hired a private investigation team,” Dykstra explained Tuesday afternoon on The Herd with Colin Cowherd on Fox Sports.
