The Boston Red Sox have been busted for using electronic devices in the dugout to steal opponent's signs. Apparently they were using the replay folks at Fenway to read the catchers signals to the pitcher, and they would send the information to a trainer in the dugout who received the information on his Apple watch. The trainer then signaled the information to a Red Sox runner on 2nd base who then relayed it to the batter.
In the game the Yankees discovered the cheating, the Red Sox went 5 for 8 when they had a man on 2nd base.
Red Sox Used Apple Watches to Help Steal Signs Against Yankees
Note : Stealing signs has long been a part of baseball and it isn't illegal. But you can't use electronic devices to do it, and you aren't allowed to use ANY electronic devices in the dugout - which is likely how they got busted. My assumption is that every time the Red Sox got a guy on 2nd base, this trainer suddenly became very interested in what time it was. Pretty obvious.
What do you have to say for yourself
@Robbie Hart?
Of course all of this cheating would be useless if the pitcher didn't lollygag on the mound. Get your sign - throw the fucking pitch.
