:05:17. > :05:23.tests and possibly a long-range missile launch. Vladimir Putin made
:05:24. > :05:26.his position very clear. TRANSLATION: Of course, during the
:05:27. > :05:32.talks considerable attention was made to the affairs on the Korean
:05:33. > :05:35.peninsula and we discussed the sharp aggravation of the situation,
:05:36. > :05:39.starting because of the new nuclear test and we confirmed our position
:05:40. > :05:45.that we do not recognise the nuclear status of North Korea. Pyongyang's

:05:53. > :06:05.with Olga Ivshina from BBC Russian. The negotiations were quite warm and
:06:06. > :06:11.it was interesting South Korea suggested an oil embargo and after
:06:12. > :06:14.the press conference, represented as a South Korea underlined that flood
:06:15. > :06:19.Putin refused but then his spokesperson said that Russia is
:06:20. > :06:23.supplying a tiny amount of North Korean oil and it makes no sense to
:06:24. > :06:31.put in the embargo but Esther Putin insists that sanctions do not work
:06:32. > :06:35.and it is counter-productive to corner North Korea and this echoes
:06:36. > :06:40.his position on sanctions against Russia because he says that
:06:41. > :06:46.sanctions generally do not work. Here they condemn nuclear tests made
:06:47. > :06:51.by North Korea but they realise diplomacy is the only way out. How
:06:52. > :06:58.concerned is Russia but these tests considering they share a border? The

:07:38. > :07:41.show it can be a broker in these negotiations and this is important
:07:42. > :07:45.for Putin, he tries to show himself as a very influential player on the

:07:52. > :07:57.huge gamble to try to find his place and negotiate other issues,

:08:01. > :08:07.Russian mind is their relationship with the United States? Absolutely,
:08:08. > :08:11.Mr Putin ties the North Korean question with other questions, they
:08:12. > :08:16.underline that they are ready to put pressure on North Korea but in
:08:17. > :08:21.exchange, South Korea and the United States must stop escalating the
:08:22. > :08:25.military presence on the border and shop -- stop military exercises so

:10:46. > :11:02.Welcome. It is slightly more constipated than that. Explain what
:11:03. > :11:09.happened. Just a little background, this has gone on from within a in
:11:10. > :11:14.baseball through legal fashions and illegal. It is not against the rules
:11:15. > :11:19.to steal signs and pass them to the batter, you just cannot use any
:11:20. > :11:25.outside means to help your cause. And what the Red Sox were doing was
:11:26. > :11:33.using camera angles available to them in the clubhouse, thanks to the
:11:34. > :11:38.instant replay setup, and relaying the pitch selection to the trainer
:11:39. > :11:42.in the dugout, equipped with the Apple Watch, he was getting messages
:11:43. > :11:46.on his watch from the clubhouse telling him what pitch was coming at
:11:47. > :11:51.Hebert Passat to another player in the dugout who would relay that to
:11:52. > :11:58.be run on second base who then would relay that to the batter. It sounds
:11:59. > :12:01.like a lot of activity for a couple of seconds between pitches but
:12:02. > :12:09.clearly the Red Sox had this down to a pretty finely tuned craft. And the
:12:10. > :12:12.header would have an idea of what pitch was coming, which typically
:12:13. > :12:18.helps in their ability to head the ball. It sounds amazingly, located.
:12:19. > :12:25.You would normally use a sign that your hand to alert what kind of
:12:26. > :12:29.pitch was coming? Exactly. Usually the runner on second base or the
:12:30. > :12:35.base coach might provide the information but typically you would
:12:36. > :12:40.look in from second base and give a nod to the left for the fastball or
:12:41. > :12:45.to the right for the curveball and that has generally been accepted
:12:46. > :12:50.practice, if you're not savvy enough to protect your signs you deserve
:12:51. > :12:54.what is coming to you. That was the conventional wisdom. But when you
:12:55. > :13:01.bring in binoculars, telescopes or any number of things and nowadays it
:13:02. > :13:06.is the Apple Watch, that is frowned upon and against the rules of Major
:13:07. > :13:12.league baseball. What is likely to come out of this? Will they be
:13:13. > :13:15.punished? What is the reaction? The expectation is probably a fine from
:13:16. > :13:20.Major league baseball and the public reprimand. It is not an accident
:13:21. > :13:25.this became public. They wanted the team is on alert that this is not
:13:26. > :13:29.cool, you need to do this the tried and true way. Expect a fine and a
:13:30. > :13:35.public reprimand and I do not think they will be punished at the draft
:13:36. > :13:42.pick or docked any victories. That is a bridge too far. But expect a
