Catcher testifies in case

Former Cleveland Guardians catcher Bo Naylor testified in a New York court Thursday in the case involving pitchers Emmanuel Clase and Luis Ortiz, who are accused of rigging pitches for bettors. Naylor said he had called one pitch based on a batter’s weakness, was unaware of wagers on individual pitches, and that pitchers cannot always control where pitches go. Prosecutors allege bettors won $400,000 on Clase’s pitches from 2023 to 2025 and that he sometimes communicated with gamblers during games.
