Yankees' Jazz Chisholm Jr. fines himself $1,000 for bad ABS challenges
Chisholm is 1-for-7 on ABS challenges so far this season, with some of his disputes glaringly incorrect.
Major League Baseball appears to be benefiting from the ABS challenge system implemented this season. Fans at the ballpark enjoy having incorrect ball and strike calls reviewed on the scoreboard and for all to see. Yet some MLB players are struggling with determining which calls should be challenged.
New York Yankees second baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. is one of the worst. He’s 1-for-7 after challenging a called strike on Sunday that was upheld after ABS determined that a cutter from Houston Astros pitcher Spencer Arrighetti was completely inside the strike zone.
