“Called a fair game and let the players decide it.”
What this shows — how Chris Guccione called the 155 pitches that were taken (no swing), graded against the tracked rulebook strike zone. He got 145 right. Below, only his misses are plotted, alongside every pitch the ABS (Automated Ball-Strike System) reviewed on a challenge.

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
4 pitches went to the robots · 4 overturned (ump overruled) · 0 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 strike: overturned.
- 2Teoscar Hernández — ump said strike, robot ruled ball: overturned.
- 3Joc Pederson — ump said strike, robot ruled ball: overturned.
- 4Will Smith — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
Our tracked-rulebook zone matched the ABS ruling on 4 of 4 — a zone-definition gap (ABS grades a standardized, height-based zone), not our error.
