The never-ending MLB umpire saga in the baseball world seems to continue as more officiating errors take the limelight. In the series between the New York Mets and the San Francisco Giants, some drastic calls by the umpires affected the game badly.The Giants hosted the Mets for a four-game series that was eventually split. After the Mets took the first two with a five-run margin game and a shutout seven-run win, the Giants came back to take the last two.In the series finale, home plate umpire Roberto Ortiz made some bizarre calls. The experienced official called strikes on pitches that were clearly outside the strike zone. Ortiz is one of MLB's very few umpires of Puerto Rican origin. He made his debut in the 2016 season.Eddie Velez@EddieVelezATLI would love to know are there conversations amongst @MLBUA personnel where they look at footage to see the grave errors they make? Unfortunately because of these irresponsible errors that the pitch challenge will arrive in @MLB. Pitch calls in the @Mets vs. @SFGiants are BAD!3I would love to know are there conversations amongst @MLBUA personnel where they look at footage to see the grave errors they make?

MLB has already tested 'robot umpires' and with increasing mistakes coming from senior umpires, the top brass might contemplate bringing in automated systems permanently.Willie Lopez@WillieLopezShow@EddieVelezATL @MLBUA @MLB @Mets @SFGiants Robo Umps are the answer!With modern technology, it can be very possible.

This season, new rules such as the pitch clock have been hotly debated amongst fans. Speaking to ESPN's Don Van Natta, Manfred previously discussed the introduction of the automated strike zone next season."One possibility is for the automated system to call every pitch and transmit the balls and strikes to a home plate umpire via an ear piece. Another option is a replay review system of balls and strikes with each manager getting several challenges a game," Van Natta had written.Even though there is no grading system to test the calls made by the umpires, some mechanism must be put into place by the league to correct the calls that are completely off the grid.
