A recent baseball game between Southeastern conference foes was marred by controversy. Georgia Bulldogs pitcher Christian Mracna's activity in the bullpen and during a game against the Texas A&M Aggies raised some eyebrows.

Social media videos surfaced showing Mracna appearing to work on his glove as he crouched in the corner of the bullpen during Saturday's game. Aggies coach Jim Schlossnagle seemed to take issue with Mracna's behavior and believed the pitcher may have been using some type of foreign substance on the ball, which would be a rule violation.

"Certainly appears that way," Schlossnagle said in a text to The Associated Press on Tuesday. "It's part of the game ... wish we would've caught it."
