“The strike zone picked a side, and wasn't shy about it.”
What this shows — how Jonathan Parra called the 189 pitches that were taken (no swing), graded against the tracked rulebook strike zone. He got 173 right. Below, only his misses are plotted, alongside every pitch the ABS (Automated Ball-Strike System) reviewed on a challenge.
