Arizona Diamondbacks 3, St. Louis Cardinals 4: #RobotUmpsNow

Re

Record: 50-29. Pace: 103-59. Change on 2016: +14.

A study earlier this year came up with the professions most at risk of being replaced by robots. The top five were:

  1. Loan officers
  2. Receptionists
  3. Paralegals and legal assistants
  4. Retail sales
  5. Taxi drivers/chauffeurs

After the #UmpShow abomination which unfolded tonight at Chase Field, I fervently hope that home-plate umpire D.J. Reyburn is also on the list. Because his strike-zone tonight was a travesty, a sham and a mockery of the official definition.
