Next thing we will need is two home plate umpires speacialists (HPUS'S). One will only call "STRIKE" and the other "BALL". Closes pitches will be decided by the BALLCAM inside the catchers cup.
I also understand that not too far in the future implants will be embedded into each palyer for purposes of defining an electronic strike zone field. (ESZF) (Im am only acronizing because it the new and improved way.)
When the ball touches the established electronic field that is defined by each player and electronic sensors placed at the ends of the plate, the RED light on top of the HPUS's beanie will go off, similar to NHL goal device.
Sorry guys the BEANIE is back.
Ball, strike arguments will be enhanced, (strictly for entertainment purposes) to best of three arm-wrestling matches in between innings.
Oh and most importantly, all umpires will wear PINK shirts because our supervisors will all be woman by then and, well, they show up better on TV. Why Not???????
