I keep hearing about the Astros and how they were cheating by stealing the signs/hand gestures from other teams. What I don’t get is how it’s cheating. If the catcher throws down a 1 and I know that means fastball, how would I be in the wrong if I rely that info to the batter?

It’s cheating to use electronic means and people beyond the players on the field. If a runner at second base signals a batter, that’s legal. Having a camera operator in the stands sending video feed to the dugout is very illegal. That’s what the Astros were doing.
