My mind spits with an enormous kickback.

The Phillies were innovators.

1899-1900 Phillies
A backup catcher named Morgan Murphy watched games at Baker Bowl in an “observatory” beyond the centerfield wall, where he stole signs with binoculars. Murphy rigged an underground wire from his perch to the third-base coaching box, where Bull Childs kept his foot above a junction box that would signal the pitch by buzzing once or twice. The Reds discovered and uprooted the system after they noticed Childs was not moving his right foot—not even when that portion of the coaching box included a puddle from rain. The Phillies “explained” the wire as something left behind by a traveling circus that had played at the ballpark. The club was not disciplined.


Honestly I think they should vacate all of their World Series trophies from the early 1900s. And as a punitive measure, all of their World Series trophies from the mid 1900s as well. But not 1980--I didn't eat horse shit for nothing!
george allen, redskins coach, once caught a guy in a tree with binoculars and a notepad watching his team practice. by the time people got to this guy, he had run off. so what did allen do?

cut down every tree within 100 yards of the practice field.

If the Reds' efforts of late are the result of cheating they should be punished to the most severe of extremes. Mainly because they suck at it.
