The Story in 60 Seconds

Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts has barred outfielder Andy Pages from using the Automated Ball-Strike challenge system for the rest of the season. The decision came following Game 1 of the National League Division Series, where Pages unsuccessfully challenged a clear strike on a 2-2 count with two outs in the second inning.
