Show Notes
Ken and Lima engage in a spirited debate regarding the implementation of the Automated Ball-Strike system in baseball, weighing whether a challenge-based approach adds valuable strategy or is merely a gimmick. They explore how the system affects manager decision-making for leaders like Steven Vogt and compare the efficiency of MLB's technology to officiating struggles in the NBA and NFL.
