Cheater!

TBS cameras caught Rockies closer Manny "The Cheater" Corpas pouring a cup of water or soda on the front of his shirt before leaving the bullpen to pitch the ninth inning of Wednesday's game and then rubbing dirt on the area. A stunning turn of events, if only because TBS actually was back in time for the first pitch of that inning. According to the Philadelphia Daily News, Corpas appeared to go to the spot on his jersey before several of his pitches. It'd be illegal for him to intentionally apply a substance to his jersey for a better grip on the ball, though it'd hardly make him unique if he were doing it.

Figures, he's one of K-Mad's special kids...

Apparently Brandon Webb was doing some sneaky things with a dark spot on the bill of his cap on Wednesday.
