Greg Maddux got caught playing with his balls

In this crazy YouTube world we live in … you always need to remember to look for a camera before doing anything … shall we say … potentially embarrassing?
That goes double if you’re a professional baseball player.
Triple if you’re a future first-ballot Hall of Famer like San Diego Padres pitcher Greg Maddux, who got caught in the dugout the other day … digging around.
And it wasn’t his nose.
I know there’s lots of crotch grabbing and adjusting in baseball (HRD did a big post with lots of pictures) … but there’s a line between adjusting and doing something else. When your hands are down your pants … I think you’re crossing into “something else.”
And Maddux pitched the bottom half of that inning! I hope he washed his hands. Then again … maybe that’s why Maddux has such great control on the mound.

The man’s paid to play with Bud Selig’s balls, so why can’t he play with his own? I think he was just working on his curveball grip anyway.
Besides, if a female fan can flash Foulke at Fenway then a future HOF pitcher should be allowed to maximize his comfort on the bench.
