As part of the ABS system being tested in 60% of spring training games, teams are allocated two challenges for balls and strikes (retained with a successful challenge). With Andy Pages at the plate for the Dodgers, the outfielder took exception when home plate umpire Nate Tomlinson rung him up for a bases-loaded strikeout.

Major League Baseball is trying something new this spring as they're allowing teams to challenge two ball and strike calls per game with the ABS challenge system. Players, managers and fans have been growing more and more frustrated with umpires over the years and this step to at least experiment with the challenge system seems like a good move for everyone involved.

An automated ball-strike challenge system is debuting in MLB's spring training this year, the latest development to come out of the league's testing partners, the Atlantic League and the Pioneer League.
