MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred announced that Major League Baseball will not introduce robot umpires to call balls and strikes by the 2025 season due to technical issues with the automated ball-strike system (ABS). Instead, a challenge system may be implemented as a first step towards automated calls, with players expressing concerns about the potential impact on the game. Discussions are ongoing between MLB and the Players Association to address issues such as the shape of the automated strike zone.
