Has anyone come up with a way to not have to see the zone box ?  and maybe have a option -individually  ,   And i cant find any stats for A.A.A. On amount of challenges ? - any reversals ?  gotta be honest  in all the saints games i watch , i never even notice it, , which i wish i could say SAME  for some Majors umpires,   with all the technology in todays game it would be nice to have the option of seeing the Box  IDK ?

The box on the TV screen may or may not be accurate. But it certainly does let us see how consistent the calls are, especially on the inside and outside sides of the strike zone. And overall the umps do about as well as humans can be expected to do, which is way worse than electronic pitch calling. It's shameful that MLB didn't institute an electronic system years ago.

I know that they won't implement it mid season but the sooner the better IMO.  I personally like the ump being told ball or strike based on the box and dislike the challenge system, but either way it can be better than it is.

It should NOT be implemented mid-season. That would be unfair. But the time has come. It should be in place for all MLB games in the 2024 season.
