Dodgers, Angels receive surprising report cards from the Automated Ball-Strike system's first season

Baseball Savant has evaluated the inaugural campaign of Major League Baseball's Automated Ball-Strike system, revealing metrics on player challenges. Data indicates catchers achieved a fifty-nine percent success rate overturning ball calls, while batters converted forty-nine percent of strike challenges and pitchers recorded a success rate under forty percent.

Individual performances varied significantly under the technology, as standout challengers like Jose Altuve and Cal Raleigh struggled offensively, and Los Angeles manager Dave Roberts restricted outfielder Andy Pages from initiating further reviews following repeated unsuccessful attempts.
