STL @ MIA
Home plate: Scott Barry
“Nothing that'll trend, and on this beat that's a compliment.”
What this shows — how Scott Barry 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.

Otto Lopez vs Ryan Fernandez - 2+0.28▲5 · 1-2 strike called ball
Iván Herrera vs Max Meyer - 3-0.21▼8 · 3-0 ball called strike
Otto Lopez vs Ryan Fernandez
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 · 2 overturned (ump overruled) · 1 upheld (ump confirmed). This is the ABS system’s own measurement — Hawk-Eye optical ball-tracking, not our model.

- 2Agustín Ramírez — ump said ball, robot ruled ball: upheld.
- 3Agustín Ramírez — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
Our tracked-rulebook zone matched the ABS ruling on 3 of 3 — a zone-definition gap (ABS grades a standardized, height-based zone), not our error.
