Astros' Jeff Luhnow, AJ Hinch fired for sign stealing

Major League Baseball issued it verdict on the sign stealing scheme the Houston Astros were accused of.

It handed one year suspensions for Astros' General Manager Jeff Luhnow and Manager AJ Hinch.

Both were promptly fired by the team.

The Astros engaged in the use of cameras to steal signs from opposing teams.  The signs were relayed to the bench here players hit a trash can to give the signs to the batter.

MLB has made it known it will not go lightly on the use of technology to steal signs.  Last week, it came out during the Boston Red Sox World Series year, players went into a video room and were able to get the signs during regular season games.
