Rob Manfred Believes Astros Are Only Team Involved in Sign-Stealing Scandal

One week after reports surfaced that the Astros electronically stole signs in 2017, Major League Baseball commissioner Rob Manfred said he thinks no other teams are involved in the scandal.

Manfred addressed the allegations at the MLB owners' meetings in Arlington on Tuesday.

"I have no reason to believe it extends beyond the Astros at this point in time," he said, per ESPN's Jeff Passan.

Last week, The Athletic reported Houston stole signs at home games in 2017 with the use of an outfield camera. The Athletic spoke to four sources on the matter, including pitcher Mike Fiers who played with the Astros that season.
