lol, Ausmus is really digging

[maven]

I don't get it. He's hiding pine tar under his wedding ring .... INSIDE his glove!?! Wouldn't that be kinda cumbersome and obvious?

[stkjock]

Ausmus seemed to be saying that he can't have it on by rule (?)  maybe he thinks when F1 rubs up the ball it could scuff?

 

reading Ausmus lips " I know it's a wedding ring, he can't have it on, it's a rule"

[Rich Ives]

He's right.

 

Rule 6.02(c)(7) Comment (Rule 8.02(b) Comment ): The
pitcher may not attach anything to either hand, any finger or
either wrist (e.g., Band-Aid, tape, Super Glue, bracelet, etc.).
The umpire shall determine if such attachment is indeed a foreign
substance for the purpose of Rule 6.02(c)(7) (Rule
8.02(b)), but in no case may the pitcher be allowed to pitch
with such attachment to his hand, finger or wrist.

Stranger things have happened.

Whitey Ford had a special wedding ring that had a piece of hasp or file soldered to it that he used to cut up the ball.
