MLB confirms strike call after ABS challenge

Original: Strike 1 confirmed after ABS challenge

A strike call was upheld after a manager challenged it under Major League Baseball's automated ball-strike system, with MLB.com confirming the ruling. The ABS challenge system, now in use at the major league level, lets teams contest ball and strike decisions, and calls are verified by automated tracking rather than human judgment. The confirmed strike marks an early, high-profile moment for the new technology this season.

Why now: MLB's newly introduced automated ball-strike challenge system is drawing attention as teams test it in live games.
