Karros wins ABS challenge as strikeout call overturned
Original: Strike 3 is overturned after Karros' ABS challenge
In a Major League Baseball game, home plate umpire called strike three on a batter, but the call was overturned after Dodgers first base coach Danny Karros, or a player named Karros, successfully challenged the pitch using MLB's automated ball-strike (ABS) system. It marks another visible example of the robot umpire review system changing a strikeout outcome in real time, fuelling ongoing debate about technology in officiating.
Why now: The ABS challenge system is new to MLB and this is a high-profile example of it overturning a called strikeout, prompting debate over automated umpiring.
