Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Trevor Bauer hasn't been doing so well of late, coincidentally since MLB banned sticky stuff. But on Monday, he did manage to get the best of the NL-leading San Francisco Giants, striking out eight in six innings of work in a 3-2 victory.
At one point in the fourth inning, Bauer was closely examined by umpires for any foreign substances. He apparently passed that test, and after his final strikeout of the evening in the top of the sixth, he broke out what I would call a half-Nixon: both hands raised to the sky, one with the peace sign extended, the other still holding his glove.
