ABS Challenge

The Atlanta Braves defeated the Toronto Blue Jays 9-5 in a Grapefruit League contest that ended dramatically on an ABS challenge in the ninth inning. With bases loaded and two outs, reliever Luis Vargas' slider to Josh Rivera was initially called a ball but overturned to a strikeout after review. This marked the third such instance in recent spring training games involving the new automated ball-strike system.
