GOODYEAR, Ariz. -- Trevor Bauer has no beef about MLB clipping the wings of his drone.

"Look if I flew my drone over MLB-affiliated land, then it's a precedent for any fan to fly it over," said Bauer after Saturday's practice. "The last thing you want is a fan flying it over during a game and interferring with a game or a player.

"Obviously, I'm not trying to break any rules here. I enjoy flying the thing. It's kind of cool and I figured it would take some cool pictures for the fans to see."

Early last week Bauer flew his remote-controlled drone, or quadcopter, over the Indians spring training site in Goodyear, Ariz. A video camera he installed took some picture of the complex and some fans watching practice.

Bauer posted the pictures on his Twitter account. MLB informed the Indians the Bauer should cease and desist any more flights over MLB-owned property.

"I'm still trying to investigate it to find out what the rules are so I can still fly it and get some shots," said Bauer. "I think it would be cool to get some shots of the stadiums I play at.

"I understand it, and I have to do a lot more research, but as long as I don't fly it over MLB-controlled property I think I should be all right."

Bauer, however, could not help himself from having some Twitter-directed fun at MLB's expense.

"I completely understand where they're coming from, but I had to have some fun with it," he said.

Here are some of his Tweets.
