""I think they had a good game plan as the opposing team, and maybe I pitched into their game plan as far as calling pitches. I'm not 100 percent sure. I think it's odd that some of those hitters that do what they do, they go up there and they're on the first pitch that was thrown. So it's a little fishy, but I'll wear it.""
""I saw some bad breaking balls. So, I don't think there was anything fishy behind it. I think there were some bad pitches.""
""Rushing's comments are all the more confusing, considering the Rockies swing at the first pitch more than any team in baseball. Instead, it looked like an aggressive team swinging at pitches early that caught too much of the zone.""
""Generally, Rushing is one of the most thoughtful players on the team with his answers, but it seems frustration took over for the young backstop in this instance.""
The Los Angeles Dodgers faced difficulties against the Colorado Rockies, losing two out of three matchups this season. Dalton Rushing suggested possible cheating or sign-stealing after a game where the Rockies capitalized on poor pitching. Rushing's comments hinted at suspicion but did not directly accuse the Rockies. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts attributed the Rockies' success to bad pitches rather than any foul play. Rushing's frustration may have clouded his judgment, providing a learning opportunity for him moving forward.
