It's hard for some fans of baseball to believe that the sport like others is filled with its share of scandal, cheating, rule breaking, etc. If you would like to avoid indigestion or worse a heat attack, don't take the game so seriously. Below you will see and read what you need to know so you don't be one of those guys brainwashing little kids into assuming that all is fair--no it is not. Cheaters win as long as they remain favorites and behave themselves as for those whistleblowers, well unless protected some go missing, others lose out on opportunities, and so on. Let's play some hard ball...
Remember the little league Chicago team scandal -- the plan to build a super team?
How about those MLB scandals that involve hacking files, performance enhancing drugs (2013 biogenesis scandal), racists comments, drugs (1985), gambling (1980s), and others? But don't take a deep sigh and assume that all is in the past, there are those players and their affiliates that are still doing scandalous things to date. They just haven't been found out yet.
A baseball wedged itself in Yadier Molina's chest protector, seemingly defying the laws of physics, see here.

The more you know, the more likely you can save yourself some time, energy and money supporting things that are filled with mischief. Don't fight the truth, embrace it!
