“Borderline went to the battery all night.”
What this shows — how Paul Clemons called the 149 pitches that were taken (no swing), graded against the tracked rulebook strike zone. He got 137 right. Below, only his misses are plotted, alongside every pitch the ABS (Automated Ball-Strike System) reviewed on a challenge.

ABS — the Automated Ball-Strike System
4 pitches went to the robots · 3 overturned (ump overruled) · 1 upheld (ump confirmed). This is the ABS system’s own measurement — Hawk-Eye optical ball-tracking, not our model.
- 1Steven Kwan — ump said strike, robot ruled ball: overturned.
- 2Teoscar Hernández — ump said strike, robot ruled ball: overturned.
- 3Teoscar Hernández — ump said strike, robot ruled ball: overturned.
- 4Austin Hedges — ump said ball, robot ruled ball: upheld.
Our tracked-rulebook zone matched the ABS ruling on 3 of 4 — a zone-definition gap (ABS grades a standardized, height-based zone), not our error.
