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.

If you are going by-the-book strike zone, the top and bottom would have to be customized for every hitter. Not sure how you would do that with an automated system, but certainly it could be called better than it now is, where the high by-the-book strike is usually considered a ball.
