MLB to adopt Automated Ball-Strike (ABS) challenge system in 2026 Major League Baseball will introduce an Automated Ball-Strike (ABS) challenge system across spring training, the regular season and postseason starting in 2026. Under the new system, umpires will continue to make the initial ball/strike call, but pitchers, catchers or batters can immediately challenge that call. The system uses Hawk-Eye camera technology to track each pitch. How the ABS challenge works Each team starts a game with two challenges; unsuccessful challenges cost a team one opportunity. If a team has no challenges left at the start of extra innings, it will receive an additional challenge for the extra play. The ABS system relies on a network of cameras; if any part of the pitch is shown touching the batter's strike zone,…

DIY Xbox handheld vs. ROG Xbox Ally — Should you wait? A recent YouTube teardown by James Channel shows you can turn a first-generation Xbox into a handheld right now.

Assembly: quick, crude, and heavily glued — functional but fragile. Comparison: ASUS' ROG Xbox Ally (official handheld) aims to ship on Oct 16, 2025 with a polished experience and better ergonomics. Why bother DIY? Cost:…
