PatPfund Verified Member Posted May 29, 2022 Posted May 29, 2022 For me, it is the strike call appeal (which you can see in the most recent Twins System recap below; you can skip to the 5:56 mark). Player taps his head to appeal a call, the ump turns to find out whether the auto call system confirms/overturns the game call, and you move on in 5 seconds. Imagine if Duran had been able to appeal the atrocious no-strike calls the other night against KC. I would love to just go with auto-call (since some umps are TERRIBLE at this), but the appeal would be a great half-step there.
