Several Dodgers go public, peeved by Astros' cheating scam

The Los Angeles Dodgers would rather earn a World Series trophy on their own than accept any scraps from the Houston Astros or Boston Red Sox, the teams that beat them in 2017 and '18. Despite being eager to focus on the upcoming season, several Dodgers publicly for the first time expressed annoyance at the Astros for the sign-stealing system used during the 2017 season, when Houston beat them in seven games in the World Series. ''They cheated and they got away with it,'' utilityman Kike Hernandez said Saturday during the team's annual FanFest outside Dodger Stadium.
