Home plate: Ryan Wills
“Tonight's zone had a rooting interest.”
What this shows — how Ryan Wills called the 185 pitches that were taken (no swing), graded against the tracked rulebook strike zone. He got 170 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
5 pitches went to the robots · 1 overturned (ump overruled) · 4 upheld (ump confirmed). This is the ABS system’s own measurement — Hawk-Eye optical ball-tracking, not our model.
- 1Luis Torrens — ump said ball, robot ruled ball: upheld.
- 2Calvin Faucher — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
- 3Mark Vientos — ump said strike, robot ruled strike: upheld.
- 4Calvin Faucher — ump said ball, robot ruled ball: upheld.
- 5Liam Hicks — ump said ball, robot ruled ball: upheld.
Our tracked-rulebook zone matched the ABS ruling on 3 of 5 — a zone-definition gap (ABS grades a standardized, height-based zone), not our error.
