00:02In 1981, Lenny Randall did exactly that.

00:05The opposing batter hit a slow roller down the third base line.

00:08Almost foul!

00:09Randall got down on his hands and knees and started blowing on the ball,

00:12trying to keep it fair so he could field it and get the out.

00:15But the umpire caught the stunt instantly and ruled the ball foul.

01:07Brett's bat had pine tar extending beyond the legal 18-inch limit.

01:12The umpire called Brett out, canceling the home run.

01:15Brett erupted in anger, storming out of the dugout.

01:18The Royals protested, and the American League president overturned the call.

01:23The game resumed 25 days later, with the Royals clinching a win 5-4.

01:28One of baseball's most comical cheating attempts involves knuckleballer Joe Necro.

01:33In 1987, umpires suspected Necro was doctoring the ball.

01:37When asked to empty his pockets, he nervously tried to toss away an emery board,

01:41a nail file onto the grass.

01:43Caught red-handed, Necro was ejected and suspended 10 days.

01:47He claimed it was just for filing nails between innings,
