Why don't they put ball dispensers at pro events? It would be a whole lot easier if the assistant umpires didn't have to toss the ball to the server every serve. All they need to do is install a tube or metal rails that hold 10 balls on each side and players would just take the next ball when they serve. If they run out during a long game then the assistant can have a few extra on hand.
I've seen some umpires who are terrible at tossing and the player has to run down the ball or worse. Ball boys/girls would just load them up after each game during the break and off you go.
