Robot Umpiring Will Be Bad for Baseball

My friend Rich Lowry — normally a pretty sensible guy — wants the robots to ump your baseball games.

Ah, I see, Rich — what we can’t have is anything in this life that makes things interesting, uneven, or human. Like the Soviet collectivization of the Ukrainian wheat harvest, Rich’s dream of perfection in baseball umpiring is utopian and dystopian all at the same time!
