    I wish some network had the cajones to superimpose that amoeba graphic over the plate.

    Balls and strikes should be called by computers. I’m tired of subjective crappy calls.

      Next they will replace the players with robots. Then the robots will have to fight in order to get on base. Then they will rename the sport to Base Wars.

          Only if by “fight” they mean an actual fight and not just both teams running onto the field to mill about while a few players/coaches yell at each other.

          Though the liability insurance would be pretty crazy considering how large of an area the homerun kill zone would be around the stadium. Once they get to the point where they can put a ball in orbit, that kill zone would cover the entire globe.
