Emmanuel Clase Arrested At JFK As Pitch-Rigging Case Intensifies

Clase was arrested by FBI agents at JFK Airport after arriving from the Dominican Republic and will be arraigned at 2 p.m., according to the Eastern District of New York. The Guardians closer has already been indicted alongside Luis Ortiz in the alleged pitch-rigging scheme that prosecutors say generated over $400,000, and MLB has since capped pitch props at $200.
