I'm sure some of you huys remember Livan Herhandez' ridiculous 16K(?) playoff game.
the little box isn't really accurate (the one on Tv anyway) as it doesn't change size from player to player.

problems with a robot strikezone is it would kill pitching and turn baseball into a 10-9 batter's massacre every night. An unmoving, rigid K zone would be quickly learned by batters and take a lot of the swing and miss away from pitchers. Batters wouldn't have to protect away nearly as much as they do now.
