Dodgers ban Andy Pages from ABS challenges after postseason mistake

The Los Angeles Dodgers have prohibited Andy Pages from challenging Automated Ball-Strike System (ABS) calls following a controversial decision in Game 1 of the postseason on October 3, 2026. Manager Dave Roberts confirmed that Pages made an unsuccessful challenge on a pitch in the second inning, which left the team with only one challenge for the remainder of the game. Pages previously faced scrutiny for his challenge success rate during the regular season, prompting the team to restrict his use of the system, a decision that is now reinstated. The Dodgers aim to improve their strategic use of challenges as the postseason progresses.
