In a spring training game, Atlanta Braves first baseman Matt Olson used MLB's new Automated Ball-Strike Challenge System to overturn a close strike call against Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Paul Skenes. The Braves won all four challenges against Skenes, contributing to their 3-1 victory. The incident highlighted the precision of the ABS system in its debut regular season.
Bobby Witt Jr. batted leadoff for the Kansas City Royals in their 7-6 victory over the Oakland Athletics during spring training. The move prepares him for a potential similar role with Team USA in the World Baseball Classic. Witt contributed a single and a home run in the game at Surprise Stadium.
