JCGStill working on a clever handle

Too bad they won't have a real robot - like a Boston Robotics type robot - behind the dish. It could do a backflip or something on a punch out. It could mess with players by pretending to reset its cap and un-velcro and velcro its batting gloves after each pitch, maybe even embarrassing them enough to keep them in the batter's box.

7th game of the World Series and my team is one game away from winning its first championship in decades, I'd rather have Mr. Robot calling balls and strikes than Angel Hernandez.

Bring it on.
