"It is not my habit to speak to the media, but based on today’s scientific findings I felt obligated to provide a statement.

How can MLB deny this when there are bouncier balls without the stamp on them that were in Yankees games and no others in the sample? This could be the biggest scandal ever.

I need Raup The Younger’s opinion on this
That was my thoughts as well.
I have no information on any of it.
However, that’s a lot of veteran umps all retiring at once.
The article does mention that a lot of these guys were promoted around the same time due to the strike, so maybe it is just a coincidence.
