Did the players understand what was going on? If so, that's really disappointing.

Not to prejudge, but it's hard to see how they wouldn't know if they are being told velocity (even relative or approximate) in advance of the pitch. Perhaps they didn't know the rules.

Knowing that the pitcher throws (generally) 90 with his fastball and 76 with his changeup doesn't mean much if you don't know which pitch is coming next.

And even without the exact MPH measurement, guys can see perfectly well in the dugout that a pitcher can really bring heat.
