Major League Baseball handed down its punishment for the Astros cheating scandal on Monday, but an account on Twitter that proclaimed to be Carlos Beltran’s niece stated some of the players on the Astros were using buzzers on the inside of their jersey to be notified on certain pitches that were coming.
That led to a surfaced photo of a Josh Reddick interview where he appeared to have something taped to his chest with a wire in plain view.
As it turned out, a video would soon surface and put that conspiracy theory to bed as it showed Reddick grabbing the confetti and throwing it off of him.
Reds pitcher Trevor Bauer claimed that he had heard about the buzzers before.

MLB decided against disciplining Astros players for their role in the cheating scandal and would later state they looked into the buzzer controversy during their investigation and found nothing substantial to prove it.
