Google Glass and Pitch Track

1 pointsby allthatglittersabout 11 years ago
Where is Google Glass when needed? If you are a baseball fan and watch the occasional game, the Sportvision Pitchf/x adds another element of interest in evaluating balls and strikes. When hitters, pitchers or managers get "disturbed" with some of the calls from behind the plate, we get an instant review. And some of these umpires lately seem to need the help of a "pitch track". Would giving the plate umpire Google Glass with a direct feed from Pitchf/x be a good idea or bad? (And has Google offered this to MLB?) MLB has instituted the challenge on field rulings - but I'm not suggesting plate call challenges - just some assistance for the home plate umpire - his call would be final regardless.
