They had roboumps in the Florida State League this year. Watched about 25-30 games with it. You honestly don't even know it's going on unless they tell you. The ump still signals the calls like he's the one actually making them. He has an earpiece that immediately gives him the call and he signals it. I guarantee that at least 90% of the people watching the game had no clue roboumps were being used.

Please check out my books on baseball history. They include the bio of star second baseman Dots Miller. A book featuring 20 Moonlight Graham players who got into just one game. Another with 13 players who were with the Pittsburgh Pirates during the regular season, but never played a game. There's also one about 27 baseball families, as well as a day-by-day look at the worst team in Pittsburgh Pirates history.
