I don't know if you can say he was busted. He was making it incredibly obvious and it's not like there's any disciplinary actions to come of this.
If I was Verlander, I would have thrown at the batter and turned to stare down Mauer.

Cheating is part of sports and fundamental to the game of baseball.
What other sport has "stealing" as one of its tracked stats?

Exactly. He knew he was stealing them and didn't do anything to stop him from doing it.
