Indians pitcher flies drone over spring training, MLB promptly bans it

Indians pitcher Trevor Bauer built a drone over the offseason and brought it to Cleveland's spring training complex in Goodyear, Arizona. MLB then banned it.

Indians pitcher Trevor Bauer built a drone over the offseason and brought it to Cleveland's spring training complex in Goodyear, Arizona. 

He wanted to put his creation to good use, so he flew it over the complex to get some sweet aerial shots, then shared them on Twitter.

The fun didn't last long.

• Dodgers spring training complex has giant Tommy Lasorda bobblehead

MLB has grounded Trevor Bauer's drone. They don't want him to be flying it over the Tribe's spring-training complex.

While it must have been disappointing to have the drone banned right as spring training is getting started, Bauer took things in stride.

Hey @MLB if my drone is really banned, can I at least have that rule named in my honor?

Seems like a fair request. Your move, MLB.
