In this episode of The Red Light Sports Ramble, presented by The Red Light Sports Network, Evan Witalison and Troy Otradovec will talk MLB.  Will Smith, from the Milwaukee Brewers, was ejected this week because of having an illegal substance on his arm.  Pine tar can be used to get a better grip on the ball.  However, does it make them through the ball any harder?  "Every pitcher does it so they'll have a better grip so we won't get hit in the head," Freeman said. If batters are ok with the use of pine tar, do you think that it is time to do away with this rule?  Listen in and call the show.
