What this shows — how Quinn Wolcott called the 131 pitches that were taken (no swing), graded against the tracked rulebook strike zone. He got 125 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 · 3 overturned (ump overruled) · 2 upheld (ump confirmed). This is Hawkeye ground truth, no model involved.

  1. 1William Contreras — ump said strike, robot ruled ball: overturned.
  2. 2Casey Schmitt — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
  3. 3Daniel Susac — ump said ball, robot ruled ball: upheld.
  4. 4Daniel Susac — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
  5. 5Drew Gilbert — ump said strike, robot ruled strike: 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.
