Twitter Reacted to Hector Santiago Becoming first Player Busted with Foreign Substance

Major League Baseball’s crackdown on pitchers has finally paid off. On Sunday, we saw our first casualty of the crackdown. Pitching against the Chicago White Sox, Seattle Mariners pitcher Hector Santiago was ejected from the game after umpires seemingly determined him to have foreign substance present. Replays show the umps checking the inside of his glove.

Watch below:

Twitter couldn’t help but notice just how guilty Santiago looked as umpires uncovered his dirty little secret:

So far this witch-hunt has proven to be quite a joke. From Nationals’ pitcher Max Scherzer being checked three times in one game, to Mets’ Tylor Megill being checked after his MLB debut, to A’s Sergio Romo actually dropping his pants, it’s been a bit wild and weird.

Glad they finally found something worth noting.
