The Boston Red Sox vs. Atlanta Braves spring training game Saturday ended in a 6-6 tie after Atlanta shortstop Cal Conley was called for a pitch clock timer violation in the batter's box to end the contest.

Conley faced a full count with the bases loaded and two outs in the bottom of the ninth.
If a batter is not in the box and ready to hit with eight seconds left on the clock, then the umpire will call a strike.
