SEA @ ATH
Home plate: Carlos Torres
“One dugout got the friendlier version of the evening.”
What this shows — how Carlos Torres called the 151 pitches that were taken (no swing), graded against the tracked rulebook strike zone. He got 140 right. Below, only his misses are plotted, alongside every pitch the ABS (Automated Ball-Strike System) reviewed on a challenge.
The zone, as he called it
The calls that moved the game
- 1-0.69▼8 · 3-2 ball called strike
Nick Kurtz vs Bryce Miller - 2+0.39▲5 · 2-2 strike called ball
Cole Young vs Jack Perkins - 3-0.28▼4 · 1-2 ball called strike
Zack Gelof vs Luis Castillo
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 · 2 overturned (ump overruled) · 2 upheld (ump confirmed). This is the ABS system’s own measurement — Hawk-Eye optical ball-tracking, not our model.
- 1Jhonny Pereda — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
- 2Zack Gelof — ump said strike, robot ruled strike: upheld.
- 3Randy Arozarena — ump said strike, robot ruled strike: upheld.
- 4Shea Langeliers — 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.
