Gammons Annoying (Even more Yankee Stuff)

First, Peter Gammons is a big reason why I love baseball, BUT (as he always says on ESPN) he has a habit of putting little tidbits in his articles that need more explanation. This was buried in his last ESPN.com article:

"the Yanks' front office was furious during their playoff series at the complaints filed by Boston with the Commissioner's Office for things like Derek Jeter and Alex Rodriguez getting radar readings from the stands"

This is why I love and hate Gammons. It's interesting information, but what does it mean? The Yankees front office is always furious; was it actually a legitimate complaint this time? Did Boston have the right to complain about Jeter and Rodriguez? Were they doing something they weren't supposed to do? He also writes "things like;" what were the other things that the Red Sox were complaining about?

Please tell me more, Mr. Gammons.
