As a self professed avid baseball fan, how would you feel if a reliable electronic system was developed to automatically call balls and strikes?

Your faith in technology and those who control it is charming.

In a era where professional refs have been exposed for being compromised, I find your faith in human nature amusing.

Better than having faith in the umps, all of whom have their own definition of the strike zone, most of whom will even admit it. When Curt Shilling said that part of his tape review was studying the ump to get a handle on how they customize their strike zone MLB should have panicked and cracked down on the umps, there should be no “my strike zone” it’s defined in the rule no customization needed.
