To get better calls
In a shockingly forthcoming interview with Fox’s Colin Cowherd Tuesday, former Phillies star Lenny Dykstra admitted that he hired private investigators to dig up dirt on Major League umpires in order to give himself an advantage.
“I said ‘I need these umpires,’ so what do I do? I just pulled a half-million bucks out and hired a private investigation team. Their blood is just as red as ours. Some of them like women, some of them like men, some of them gamble. Some of them do whatever … It wasn’t a coincidence do you think that I led the league in walks the next two years, was it? Fear does a lot to a man.
‘Hey, so did you cover last night?’ He called a strike. ‘Oh I don’t think you heard me. Did you cover the spread last night?'
