Ok, I get that.
Not being a baseball fan It's hard for me to understand, but I guess it is the difference between studying a rival between games, and then using technology during the game.
But again, hard for me to understand since I am not a fan. I see the fingers move from the catcher, and the coaches wipe their brow or hat or rub their arm.
Maybe it is akin to a marathon runner who hitches a rid 10 miles in? The car would be the technology helping him cheat?
It's really the fact that it is against the rules and they were told twice to stop doing it and they continued. I grew up playing baseball and stealing signs was common place, hell we had are own set of signs to indicate to the rest of the team we had in fact stolen the signs, and then we would relay through signals or verbally what pitches were coming.
