Description

Robot umps are coming to MLB! Starting in 2026, baseball will use an Automated Ball-Strike System (ABS) where teams get two challenges per game to review ball and strike calls. Using Hawk-Eye cameras and a 5G network, the ABS creates a customized strike zone for each player, but human umpires still make the initial calls. Will this tech enhance fairness or disrupt baseball's traditions? Find out how this blend of technology and tradition will change the game!
