    Damn. This is a significant setback for those of us who are sick and tired of umps blowing calls.

      I'm guessing there are still kinks in the roboump that need to be worked out as far as how accurate the tracking of the pitch is when it reaches the Strike Zone (there could be perspective problems with close pitches due to camera angle, wind causing one of the cameras to be moving, etc.).
