Major League Baseball stripped the Boston Red Sox of a draft pick for using cameras to steal signs — but declared that the team's cheating 'was far more limited in scope and impact' than the 2017 Houston Astros.
The Red Sox said the wrong doing happened only during"isolated instances during the 2018 regular season," but nonetheless apologized.
The Astros were caught using a video feed at the team's home stadium, Minute Maid Park, to tip off Houston batters of the pitch type that was about to be thrown. Signals were relayed to hitters by someone banging on a trash can. Jeff Luhnow and A.J. Hinch, Houston's general manager and field manager, were both fired from the club.
