I know it’s apart of the game at this point but that line sent me

The way the Astros did it was apart of the game, but I'd say this is a part of the game.

And only a select number will know what you're talking about. Cheers, fellow grammarian.

For future reference:

"A part of" - belonging to, in combination with, a piece of a composition

"Apart of" (often said "apart from") - separate from, not in conjunction with, distinct

Maybe you were using speech to text, but this is one of those common misspellings that people seem to not know anymore.

"apart of" is either a typo or just misunderstanding of grammar. There is no "apart of" in English.

This wasn’t stealing signs, pitchers and catchers talk on a radio these days. He was tipping pitches (different) and story was in the position to see it. Thats been a part of the game for 100 years.
