“Nothing that'll trend, and on this beat that's a compliment.”
What this shows — how Chris Guccione called the 120 pitches that were taken (no swing), graded against the tracked rulebook strike zone. He got 114 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 · 2 overturned (ump overruled) · 3 upheld (ump confirmed). This is the ABS system’s own measurement — Hawk-Eye optical ball-tracking, not our model.
- 1Wade Meckler — ump said strike, robot ruled ball: overturned.
- 2Logan O'Hoppe — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
- 3Cal Raleigh — ump said ball, robot ruled ball: upheld.
- 4Cal Raleigh — ump said strike, robot ruled strike: upheld.
- 5Jose Siri — ump said strike, robot ruled strike: upheld.
Our tracked-rulebook zone matched the ABS ruling on 5 of 5 — a zone-definition gap (ABS grades a standardized, height-based zone), not our error.
