Suffice to say, by now every baseball executive, baseball player, and baseball fan on the planet is beyond tired of hearing about the Houston Astros sign-stealing scandal. Not a day goes by where we, collectively, do not hear or read something about it … ad nauseam.
On Friday morning, longtime MLB manager and 2013 National League Manager of the Year Clint Hurdle, who retired from the game after being fired by the Pittsburgh Pirates following the 2019 season, said on MLB Network Radio what every baseball executive, every baseball player and every baseball fan knew, believed, and has desperately been waiting to hear from every member of the loathed Astros franchise but absolutely never will … not ever:
“I’ve always been a firm believer you keep it simple – You admit what you did wrong, you say you’re sorry, and then you correct it and then you don’t do it again.”
Although the entire baseball world absolutely loves recently hired new Astros manager Dusty Baker, perhaps they hired the wrong guy to replace disgraced fired Astros manager A.J. Hinch.
Play Ball!

Like everything else, we’ll just have to wait and see.
Y’mean “Shut up! You don’t know what you’re talkin’ about! It doesn’t matter ’cause we’re so good that we would have beat you even if we played fair!” isn’t a proper way to apologize?
Go figger!
