Home plate: Jansen Visconti
“You had to throw it down Broadway to get the call.”
What this shows — how Jansen Visconti called the 145 pitches that were taken (no swing), graded against the tracked rulebook strike zone. He got 133 right. Below, only his misses are plotted, alongside every pitch the ABS (Automated Ball-Strike System) reviewed on a challenge.
The zone, as he called it
The calls that moved the game
- 1+0.30▼3 · 3-1 strike called ball
Shohei Ohtani vs Eduardo Rodriguez - 2+0.23▲5 · 0-2 strike called ball
Ketel Marte vs Tyler Glasnow - 3+0.19▲1 · 2-0 strike called ball
Geraldo Perdomo vs Tyler Glasnow
Run impact from the count run-value table: a missed strike three is worth far more than one on 3-0.
ABS — the Automated Ball-Strike System
3 pitches went to the robots · 1 overturned (ump overruled) · 2 upheld (ump confirmed). This is the ABS system’s own measurement — Hawk-Eye optical ball-tracking, not our model.
- 1Will Smith — ump said ball, robot ruled ball: upheld.
- 2James McCann — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
- 3Edwin Díaz — ump said ball, robot ruled ball: upheld.
Our tracked-rulebook zone matched the ABS ruling on 2 of 3 — a zone-definition gap (ABS grades a standardized, height-based zone), not our error.
