The Mets contacted the Major League Baseball office to question the Dodgers’ usage of a laser rangefinder, a device designed to gauge distance, to aid the team’s outfield position. “Lasers in the outfield,” Roberts said. Roberts and the Dodgers denied usage of the laser during the game, which would violate a rule about using electronics during the game. The Dodgers mark the outfield at Dodger Stadium, and Roberts said the team has allowed visiting clubs the same privilege. We’ve been OK with it.”In Roberts’ version of events, the Mets denied the Dodgers’ request.
