The MLB All-Star Game is making headlines this year with the introduction of robot umpires and an automated ball-strike system (ABS), marking a potential turning point for the league as it tests the technology in an All-Star setting. The ABS challenge system, aimed at enhancing the accuracy of calls in a sport often criticized for human error, is receiving mixed reactions from players. While some, like Detroit Tigers’ Tarik Skubal, have successfully leveraged the system, others, including Aaron Judge, have voiced skepticism. The initiative is seen as a step toward regular-season use by 2026, with MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred calling for improvement in officiating standards. As the All-Star Game unfolds, fans can follow live highlights and witness the evolving landscape of baseball technology.
