What this shows — how Edwin Moscoso called the 165 pitches that were taken (no swing), graded against the tracked rulebook strike zone. He got 156 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 · 2 overturned (ump overruled) · 2 upheld (ump confirmed). This is the ABS system’s own measurement — Hawk-Eye optical ball-tracking, not our model.
- 1J.C. Escarra — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
- 2J.C. Escarra — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
- 3J.C. Escarra — ump said ball, robot ruled ball: upheld.
- 4Leody Taveras — ump said strike, robot ruled strike: upheld.
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.
