Pitchers Cheat without Steroids

Steroids are not the only way that athletes can cheat in sports. Not a lot of baseball pitchers cheat but when they do they are really sneaky. Some ways they cheat are sandpaper, spit balls, and putting different types of substances on the ball so it will move.  Pitchers will spit on the ball to give it some extra movement. They are rarely caught but one instant was  in 1999 a Dimondback pitcher was caught when a bandaid fell off his shirt and it had "heat balm" on it. He was immediately  ejected. Other substance that pitchers use are mud, Vaseline, and sunblock. Former Tigers pitcher was ejected from a game for putting a small piece of sand paper on his thumb. He was subtly scuffing the ball to give him more movement. Pitchers do not cheat often. But when they do its effective. Most of the time they are not caught.
