MLB strike overturned to ball after ABS challenge
Original: Strike 1 overturned to ball 1 after ABS challenge
An umpire's call of strike one was overturned to ball one after a manager challenged it under Major League Baseball's automated ball-strike system. The review changed the pitch count without altering any score. The moment is drawing attention as MLB's ABS challenge system, being used at the top level this season, shows it can directly reverse plate umpires' calls in real games.
Why now: MLB's new automated ball-strike challenge system is new and fans are watching how it changes umpiring in real games.
