The real ####ty part about that call was that early in the game Ray was absolutely painting the inside corner to righties but didn't get a single call. It's like the ump couldn't comprehend that Ray being a lefty, and with his movement, the ball was cutting across the corner finishing an inch or two out.
I'm a huge fan of automated strike zone. I don't know why it hasn't been implemented yet. There will still be a need for the 4 umpires to be at the bags to monitor the other aspects of the game so it's not like umpires will be losing there jobs. What's the big hold up MLB?
