Roberts: Possible sign-stealing ‘part of the game’

LOS ANGELES — Whether or not the Cubs are stealing signs, the Dodgers don’t seem to begrudge them for it, with manager Dave Roberts calling it “part of the game.”

Allegations of sign-stealing popped up after the Dodgers’ 1-0 win during Game 2 of the National League Championship Series on Sunday night, when Yasmani Grandal told the Los Angeles Times that the reason behind an unusually high number of mound visits when he was behind the plate was that the team was worried about opponents stealing signs. As evidence, Grandal noted a curious at-bat from Addison Russell in the eighth inning of Game 1 on Saturday.
