Looked good to me.
Still on the mend, eh?
No. I use a special pitch track.

This is an excellent report on the automated umpiring in the Atlantic League. Great video too.https://www.today.com/video/are-robot-umpires-the-future-of-baseball-67457093752
Can you watch a movie without a villain?
The technology is here!

Start in MLB next season. You might need to radius the corner like human umps have done for years. But as long as there's a capture available like there was for that call, do it.Also, that kid should not have been tossed.
My question is how do they handle borderline calls? Is it going to be like hockey where the whole puck has to cross the blue line? Or like football where if any part of the ball breaks the plane, it's in the zone?
NEVER !!!So what about technology. The technology exists to pitch from a machine as well.The calling of balls & strikes adds a level of excitement that would only be detrimental to the fan enjoyment if balls/strikes were automated.
You think players, coaches, and fans constantly nagging about balls and strikes is exciting?
I thought the HP ump last night (Yanks/Astros) was as good as I've seen recently. Of course, I wasn't focused on the game and I don't have any rooting interests. When I did pay attention, he was solid.
