I was very skeptical before seeing the video. But after seeing it for myself, what in the hell are these Yankees players sniffing from inside the dugout??

The video comes from Boston guy and self-proclaimed “piece of shit” Luke O’Neil. The Esquire writer most likely caught this on camera Wednesday night because the Yankees were playing his Red Sox.
C.C. Sabathia is the player making the pass to the other Yankee in the dugout. So what could they be sniffing yet be so brazen about?? O’Neil thinks it could be bath salts.
It’s important to note that Sabathia, who has opened up before about his struggles with alcohol addiction, certainly could have been using smelling salts—chemicals often used by athletes to arouse consciousness. That said, since smelling salts aren’t illegal, why be so damn weird about it?
If it is in fact bath salts, don’t they know that s*** can turn you into a zombie!?
