Message: [QUOTE="kibblesnbits, post: 2321320, member: 97"] You don't catch on very quickly do you? You claimed the use of electronics to steal signals is illegal. Then you cited teams using cameras and TVs legally and seemed clueless that those are electronics. Here's a clue -if you have to plug it in it's probably electronics. The Red Sox admitted to using a watch to accelerate transfer to the trainer and players in the dugout. That was the only rules violation. What no one has shown is that the information was transferred to the batter in real time. If it happened it would be easy to show as the signals would have to be simple. If it didn't happen then the benefits over the legal sneakernet technique were minimal. I suspect that's the case because the Commissioner seemed to minimize it as gamesmanship between two rivals. If so, it will probably just be a fine for violating the communications rules, not some excessive theft of signs. [/QUOTE]
