@MLB on X: BREAKING: Major League Baseball will use the Automated Ball-Strike Challenge System (ABS) during the entire 2026 season ABS CHALLENGE RULES: - Each team will get two challenges and can keep them if they're successful - Challenges can only be initiated by a pitcher, catcher, or batter, and the request must come right after the pitch - To signal a challenge, the pitcher, catcher, or batter will tap his hat or helmet to let the umpire know - No help from the dugout or other players on the field is allowed - In each extra inning, a team will be awarded a challenge if it has none remaining entering the inning The ABS Challenge System powered by T-Mobile 5G network uses cameras set up around the perimeter of the field to track the location of each pitch and a graphic on the scoreboard shows the result of the challenge

Post from Reddit user achicomp in subreddit r/AskHistorians. Post title: What was navigation like for vehicle drivers in the United States before the internet and GPS? Post text: Before GPS devices and smartphones/cellular internet networks were a thing (Garmin company was founded 1989), millions of Americans were already getting around driving without the use of those inventions. How did they navigate? Did everyone need stacks of maps? Were drivers frequently lost? Did everyone have to understand the interstate system and use intuition to guide them? How burdensome was driving before GPS? Did drivers pay people to calculate an optimal route for them?
