Yankees Pitcher Gerrit Cole Doesn't Know How To Answer Cheating Question
HuffPost
Last week, Cole was accused of using a substance called Spider Tack to increase the spin rate of his pitches.
Gerrit Cole’s day job is pitching for the New York Yankees, but he made like a tap dancer during a news conference on Tuesday. It started after New York Post columnist Ken Davidoff directly asked Cole if he was cheating: “Have you ever used Spider Tack while pitching?” Spider Tack is a sticky substance openly used by weightlifters to enhance their power grip, but many Major League pitchers have been accused of using the substance to increase their spin rate ― even though it’s officially banned in the sport.More Related News
