MLB Implements ‘Robo Umps’: What It Means | USWNT’s Mewis Sisters Talk World Cup Expansion, New Combines

MLB is officially adopting its automated ball-strike system, also known as “robo umps”, for challenges. FOS reporter Eric Fisher spoke to MLB commissioner Rob Manfred about the ABS system last week, and joins to explain how this new technology will impact baseball.

Plus, US Women’s National Team stars Sam and Kristie Mewis join to discuss changes to women’s soccer, including massive transfer fees, new combines for players, and the potential expansion of the World Cup to 64 teams. They also give a sneak peak into “Mewis Squared”, their new show that debuts this Friday for The Women’s Game, part of the Men in Blazers Media Network.

Also, new Blazers minority owners could have their acquisition blocked, Ace Bailey fires his controversial manager, and a college basketball icon retires.
