Michael Kay, the television voice of the Yankees, claims that Rangers starter Cliff Lee cheats on the mound.

The theory is that Lee is touching his cap, which appears to contain a resin residue on the back and bill, to either load up the ball or get a better grip on it.

Kay also hosts a show on ESPN-1050.

"I would think that's illegal," Kay said on 1050. "If I'm Joe Girardi, I'm telling the umpires he (Lee) has got to wear another hat."

The Yankees will first face Lee in Game 3 of the ALCS.

It's rosin, and it's not illegal lol.

And after the Yankees sign Cliff Lee for 5 years over 110 million, is he going to be crying about his hat?

Taking Michael Kay seriously is a bad idea. But like cheato said, once Lee takes his talents to the South Bronx in the winter, it won't matter at all.

I hope Cliff Lee does to the Yankees what LeBron James did to the NBA.

Michael Kay is the biggest <Censored>ing homer I have ever seen, he rides the Yankees dick like crazy and all my yankees friends know its true. As for Cliff Lee, idk what he will do in the offseason, pretty scary to have CC and Lee reunite back together so I see CC being a big promoter for the yankees. But I think that if the Rangers win the World Series that will greatly increase their chances to retain him. I dont know why, but Lee doesnt seem like a guy whose all about the money and media attention.

He has to be right. I mean, how else would the Rangers beat the Yankees. Oh wait, they could outplay them, which they did. Crazy concept I know. Especially since the Yankees are never supposed to not make, and win, the World Series. You are spot on Michael Kay. Dumbass.

Well it's not like he made this claim after the ALCS, he made it on the 16th. Nevertheless, the guy is a douche and why I prefer to listen to WFAN 660 rather than ESPN Radio.

Well... People talking about Michael Kay without listening to him are ignorant. Michael Kay goes on his radio show and BASHES the Yankees ALL THE TIME. He criticizes every move that Girardi makes, every move Cashman makes... He is a huge homer when he is on the YES network, (YANKEES channel) but otherwise he is a prick who says stupid <Censored> on ESPN radio for ratings.

Kay on YES isn't anywhere near the worst in terms of homerism... Statts and Kennedy in Tampa easily take that prize. As a matter of fact, Kay isn't even that bad in terms of carrying an unbiased view.
