I'm the Astros fan who created http://signstealingscandal.com, so I'm definitely not saying they didn't cheat. They cheated in the regular season (I documented over 1,100 bangs). And I'm almost certain the Astros were cheating during the 2017 World Series. An interesting point though, in Darvish's 2 World Series starts (1 away, 1 at home), he threw 3.1 innings and gave up 8 earned runs (4 in each game). The other Dodgers pitchers threw 13.2 innings in those games and gave up 0 earned runs. I think it's possible the Astros were stealing signs and Darvish was tipping pitches.

That's actually not true. There was one swing and miss. Tom Verducci said so himself in his SI article the day before he went on MLB Network and said there was zero (https://www.si.com/mlb/2020/02/20/astros-cheating-scandal-cl...). The Statcast data show one, too. I have no idea why Tom Verducci changed from one to zero. It really doesn't change his point if it's one or zero.

It doesn't matter if he was under oath — lying to Congress is a crime, oath or not.

Long overdue and very nice! I would like to filter by OpenType features, though (e.g., serif font with oldstyle figures).

I've written a Sublime Text package to convert RGB colors (hex, RGB, & RGBa) to HSL or HSLa. You can convert selected colors or all colors in a file.
