A new report from the Athletic says the Boston Red Sox used its video replay room illegally in 2018.
The report, from the Athletic’s Ken Rosenthal and Evan Drellich, cites three unnamed employees who were with the Red Sox during their world championship season.
They said players visited the video replay room during games to learn the sequence of signs players were using, a violation of Major League Baseball rules.

“It’s cheating,” one person who was with the Red Sox told the Athletic.
MLB strengthened its rules against sign stealing before the 2018 season, instituting procedures attempting to ensure teams did not use video to steal signs.
