A guy that grew up with a pitcher for the Pirates, claims they're fixing games together, on facebook. The sad thing is because it was a lie there were no charges against him, though he almost ruined Lockes career, who hadn't seen him since they were kids.
He had been claiming the fix was in and got lucky to win all 6 games he claimed, including one where the Pirates were up pretty big, when he tweeted that Locke was gonna throw an inning and lose the game. Right after the tweet Locke gave up a bunch of home runs and lost the game, which got some peoples attention. Interesting read,
