What this shows — how Edwin Moscoso called the 110 pitches that were taken (no swing), graded against the tracked rulebook strike zone. He got 104 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

Challenge 1: Christian Vázquez — the ump called it a strike, the robot ruled ball (OVERTURNED — ump overruled).1Challenge 2: Isaac Paredes — the ump called it a ball, the robot ruled strike (OVERTURNED — ump overruled).2Challenge 3: Raynel Delgado — the ump called it a ball, the robot ruled strike (OVERTURNED — ump overruled).3Challenge 4: Stuart Fairchild — the ump called it a ball, the robot ruled strike (OVERTURNED — ump overruled).4

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 · 4 overturned (ump overruled) · 0 upheld (ump confirmed). This is Hawkeye ground truth, no model involved.

  1. 1Christian Vázquez — ump said strike, robot ruled ball: overturned.
  2. 2Isaac Paredes — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
  3. 3Raynel Delgado — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
  4. 4Stuart Fairchild — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.

Our tracked-rulebook zone matched the ABS ruling on 0 of 4 — a zone-definition gap (ABS grades a standardized, height-based zone), not our error.
