What this shows — how Tripp Gibson called the 149 pitches that were taken (no swing), graded against the tracked rulebook strike zone. He got 142 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: Eric Haase — the ump called it a strike, the robot ruled ball (OVERTURNED — ump overruled).1Challenge 2: Nolan Arenado — the ump called it a ball, the robot ruled strike (OVERTURNED — ump overruled).2Challenge 3: Geraldo Perdomo — the ump called it a ball, the robot ruled strike (OVERTURNED — ump overruled).3

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

3 pitches went to the robots · 3 overturned (ump overruled) · 0 upheld (ump confirmed). This is Hawkeye ground truth, no model involved.

  1. 1Eric Haase — ump said strike, robot ruled ball: overturned.
  2. 2Nolan Arenado — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
  3. 3Geraldo Perdomo — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.

Our tracked-rulebook zone matched the ABS ruling on 0 of 3 — a zone-definition gap (ABS grades a standardized, height-based zone), not our error.
