VIDEO: Kiké Hernandez Latest Dodger to Call Out Astros for Sign-Stealing Scandal
By Alex Coffman
Players across the bigs are furious with the Houston Astros and their sign-stealing scandal, and rightfully so. Los Angeles Dodgers utility man Kiké Hernandez was asked for his thoughts at the Dodgers FanFest on Saturday and he did not hold back whatsoever.
“[The Astros] cheated and they got away with it. They got a ring out of it, so I guess if nothing happened to them as players, good for them.”

Hernandez was seemingly irritated about the whole situation. He was adamant that the Astros cheated and called out the players for not apologizing and comparing this scandal to past steroid scandals.
If the Dodgers are planning a 2017 World Series parade, I would love to join! So if that is in the works, can someone make a Yu Garbage Jersey for me?

The Dodgers have had plenty of players come out in anger about their loss to the Astros in the 2017 World Series now knowing of the sign-stealing.
Yu Darvish sent a hilarious self-deprecating tweet with regards to this whole nightmare, while the likes of Cody Bellinger and Clayton Kershaw were less lighthearted about the situation.
For the sake of the game I Hope this isn’t true.. if true, there needs to be major consequences to the players. That Completely ruins the integrity of the game!!!

Obviously, much more is to come from this situation. Houston has a dark cloud over its head. Only more players are going to come out and blast them leading up to the start of the 2020 campaign.
