Baseball commissioner says World Series trophy is just a ‘piece of metal’
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — Players who have won a World Series -- and those who have come up short -- seethed Monday at Commissioner Rob Manfred’s reference to the sport’s championship trophy as merely a “piece of metal,” saying that comment reflected a disconnect between baseball’s boss and those who produce the product on the field.
There have been calls for players involved to be punished in some way; MLB gave them immunity in exchange for cooperating with the investigation. Holy crap. Cody Bellinger's comments on the Astros cheating scandal are 🔥🔥. Can't ever remember a player coming out this strong, and crushing the league and an opposing team like this. Kudos to him pic.twitter.com/LMyhQ7O7VM
