Did Lance McCullers Jr. tip his pitches in disastrous World Series start? So many videos broke it down

Lance McCullers Jr. had a horrible, terrible, no good, very bad day for the Houston Astros in Game 3 of the World Series.

The normally-stellar Stros pitcher actually made history on Tuesday night — not the kind you want to make — by giving up a whopping five home runs. That’s the most ever allowed by a pitcher in a playoffs appearance. Yikes.

But Twitter was rampant with speculation: Was McCullers tipping his pitches? Was he giving something away with his delivery that might have given the Phils an indication of what was coming? Is that what Bryce Harper told Alec Bohm before Bohm mashed one over the Citizens Bank Park fence?

Let’s check out the videos:

Was it the leg kick?

Maybe not?

Was it his glove height?

Pedro Martinez did a great breakdown:

McCullers denied it, and Harper wouldn't say

Which all makes sense.
