旧金山——纽约队的何塞·卡瓦列罗（José Caballero）确信洛根·韦伯（Logan Webb）的投球偏离了好球带，于是他向人类裁判的判罚提出挑战——这一行为在大联盟历史上留下了浓墨重彩的一笔。
在周三晚间的赛季揭幕战中，巨人队以7-0击败扬基队，卡瓦列罗输掉了他向MLB所谓“机器人裁判”提出的第一次挑战，未能成功申诉对旧金山巨人队右投手投出的一个好球的判罚。
卡瓦列罗毫不犹豫地表示：“不，我就是想试一下。”
韦伯在第四局以90.7英里/小时的下沉球投出，球位于好球带的上方内侧角落，大联盟裁判比尔·米勒（Bill Miller，自1997年起执裁MLB）将其判为好球。卡瓦列罗轻敲头盔，自动球棒-好球系统（ABS）的12个鹰眼摄像头在甲骨文公园记分牌上显示的画面确认了米勒的判罚。
“我觉得球比显示的位置要高一点，”卡瓦列罗说。
“我认为这真的很好，能让每个人都对自己的行为负责，”他补充道，“它让我们有机会真正看清自己是否能把握好球带。我希望结果能相反，但这次我没有成功。”
当时纽约队以5-0领先。卡瓦列罗在第二局对韦伯的一次安打中打出了第一分打点，而韦伯在第四局投出了他职业生涯的第1000次三振。

自动判罚系统自2019年起就在小联盟进行测试，并在2025和2026年的大联盟春训中使用。一些经理表示，他们仍会想办法提出申诉并可能因此被驱逐出场。
[哥伦比亚广播公司体育网的迈克·阿西萨（Mike Axisa）指出]：“有趣的是，下一个投球被判定为好球，但看起来更明显地偏离了好球带。不过卡瓦列罗没有挑战这个判罚。他不会在连续两次投球中都消耗纽约队的挑战机会。这里面有很多策略。球队不会随便挑战任何他们认为对自己不利的判罚。比赛形势很重要。”
在周三的比赛前，扬基队主教练亚伦·布恩（Aaron Boone）支持自动判罚系统，并强调提前与球队讨论挑战判罚的决策的重要性。他强调这对所有相关人员来说都是一个学习过程。
“我一直试图直接告诉他们为什么要这样做，”他说，“我觉得我们会做得很好，这是我们的期望。我相信我们会继续改进。”
新上任的旧金山巨人队主教练托尼·维特洛（Tony Vitello）——他从田纳西大学来到巨人队，没有任何球员或教练的职业经验——表示，他周三早些时候不得不提醒自己，机器人裁判可能会在某些时候接管判罚工作。
“老实说，我当时在想今晚的裁判是谁？”他说，“你上网搜一下，首先看到的就是有机器人裁判。虽然只有一瞬间，但我有点慌了。”

MLB’s “robot umpire” debuts in Yankees-Giants season opener
March 26, 2026 / 4:53 AM EDT / CBS/AP
San Francisco— New York’s José Caballero thought for sure the pitch from Logan Webb had missed the strike zone, so he challenged the human umpire’s call – and made major league history in the process.
Caballero lost the first challenge taken to Major League Baseball’s so-called robot umpire, unsuccessfully appealing a strike by the San Francisco Giants right-hander in Wednesday night’s season opener that the Yankees won, 7-0.
Caballero didn’t hesitate. “Nope, I wanted to go for it,” he said.
Webb started the fourth inning with a 90.7 mph sinker on the upper, inner corner that was called a strike by Bill Miller, a major league umpire since 1997. Caballero tapped his helmet, and the 12 Hawk-Eye cameras of the Automated Ball-Strike System upheld Miller’s decision in a graphic shown on the Oracle Park scoreboard.
“I thought it was a little higher that what it showed,” Caballero said.
“I think it’s really good, keep everyone accountable,” he added. “It gives us a chance to really see how good (we are) with the zone or not. I wish it was the other way around, I’m trying to get the overturn call but this time I didn’t.”
New York was ahead 5-0 at the time. Caballero drove in the first run with an RBI single in a five-run second inning against Webb, who recorded his 1,000th career strikeout in the fourth.

The automated system had been tested in the minor leagues since 2019 and was used during major league spring training in 2025 and ’26. Some managers have said they will still find ways to argue and get ejected.
[CBSSports.com’s Mike Axisa pointed out] that, “Funny enough, the next pitch was a called strike that looked even more egregiously out of the zone. Caballero did not challenge that one, though. He wasn’t going to burn New York’s two challenges on back-to-back pitches. There’s plenty of strategy with these challenges. Teams won’t just challenge anything they think went against them. The game situation is important.”
Before Wednesday’s game, Yankees manager Aaron Boone spoke in support of ABS and the importance of discussing decisions on challenges with his team ahead of time. He stressed that this will be a learning process for everybody involved.
“I’ve tried to be real direct with them and why,” he said. “I feel like we’re going to be good at it, that’s the expectation. I’m sure we’ll continue to evolve with it.”
New San Francisco skipper Tony Vitello, who came to the Giants from the University of Tennessee with no professional experience as a player or coach, said he had to remind himself earlier Wednesday that the robots might take over at times.
“‘I’ve got to be honest with you, one thing I was looking at is who are the umpires tonight?” he said. “You get on Google (and) the first thing you see is there’s going to be a robot umpire. And it was only for a millisecond but I kind of freaked out.”
